    Post Is Throwing a Pitcher of Water on Somebody a Crime

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Michigan

    Idk if this is considered battery or assault, but my brother was yelling at me to get off my bed and wake up. When I didn't, i felt myself aggressively pulled off and him again telling me to get up. I asked why, and he just says: "it's not important".

    A bit groggy i sit on the floor trying to get myself awake and my brother leaves, and comes back with cold water, throwing on me, making me upset. Atm i felt angry and was shaking from this.

    I decided to retreat back to the corner behind my bed, to which my brother said he's calling the police. Lied to them saying i was combative. I left to get some air and to get as far from that place as i could.

    I didn't do anything wrong, all this over a stupid rental payment.

    Let's put it this way.

    It is unlikely in the extreme that the police will take a report on the matter you have described.

    All this? Wow, sounds like the crime of the century to me.

    Grow up and get over it. If you don't like it get your own place.

    I’ve seen people prosecuted for less. Both the pulling of one out of their bed and the throwing of the water would be batteries.
