ʃ 19. What Constitutes Offensive Contact


1.      ʃ 19. What Constitutes Offensive Contact
a.       Bodily contact is “offensive” if it offends a reasonable sense of personal dignity.
                                                              i.      Ex: While walking in a crowded street, A intentionally, but not discourteously pushes against B to pass him. NOT offensive contact.
                                                            ii.      Ex: Suffering from a contagious skin disease, A touches B’s hand, putting B at risk. This IS offensive touching.
