My question involves criminal law for the state of: California
So tonight we were at my sons baseball game. Something happened where there was a bad call by the umpire and the other teams parents were all yelling screaming and cussing at the ump. My littles ages 4,4, and 5 were aying on the playground next to all of this. I went over to get my boys off the play ground and while I was I told a group of people thats since they are nect to a pmayground they probably shouldnt cuss. Thats when a lady (around 30)jumped out of her seat and got in my face. I told her she better back away and when I said that her mom ran up to me and pushed me. When she pushed me I instinctively swung and punched her in her forehead. Long story a bit shorter I got cited with a misdemeanor batter because she had a lump and I only had a torn shirt. I can loose my job for this.
