California Penal Code (CPC) §245(a)(1) PC is the charge for Assault with a Deadly Weapon (ADW) in California. Because ADW can be charged as either a felony or a misdemeanor, depending on the circumstances of the case and the defendant's criminal history, ADW is often referred to as being a "wobbler" crime.

Used force likely resulting in great bodily injury; AND,

Act willfully; AND,

Have facts that would lead a reasonable person to realize the act would result in using force;AND,

Have the ability to use force likely to produce great bodily injury or to assault someone; AND,

Not act in self-defense or defense of someone else.

In California law, the term "deadly weapon" includes guns, knives, bats, brass knuckles, beer bottles, and vehicles, but can also be any object that could cause serious harm. For example, swinging a knife at someone could be considered ADW.

Penalties for ADW vary depending on whether it's charged as a felony or misdemeanor. For example, aggravated assault with a deadly weapon other than a firearm can result in:

2–4 years in state prison, up to 1 year in county jail, a fine of up to $10,000, or combination of jail time, fines, or both
