JT. ST. GOVT. COMM. COMMENT--1967
Derived from Section 211.1 of the Model Penal Code and Section 314.1 of The Penal Code of 1939 [18 P.S. § 4314.1 (Supp.) ]. Said code defines aggravated assault and battery, Section 709 (18 P.S. § 4709); assault with intent to kill, Section 710 (18 P.S. § 4710); assault by prisoner, Section 710.1 (18 P.S. § 4710.1); assault by life prisoner, Section 710.2 (18 P.S. § 4710.2); assault with intent to maim, Section 712 (18 P.S. § 4712); etc.
The new Code clarifies existing law by establishing a statutory definition of all forms of assault and battery, and also consolidates existing sections in order to eliminate unnecessary duplication. Further, penalties for most types of assault, including those on peace officers, are increased.
Penalty: Increased from 3 to 5 years to 10 years.
