Spousal abuse is a criminal offense that falls under California domestic violence laws. This abuse can consist of verbal abuse, such as name calling and threats; physical abuse, such as hitting, scratching, or biting; and threats of violence, verbal abuse can be charged as criminal threats. If the alleged victim was in fear of imminent bodily injury from you, then you could be charged with spousal abuse. Another element involved in this criminal charge is that of the relationship between you and the alleged victim. A spouse, ex-spouse, or co-habitant such as a domestic partner can all be victims of spousal abuse.

If you are charged with the crime of spousal abuse, then you could face penalties of jail time, fines, and court-ordered attendance in a domestic batterer's class.
