yes... ask for compensation...

if it is not so serious, forget it lah... as far as the police is concerned, your friend says that they assaulted him, and they say your friend assaulted them... so no case... public fighting... both parties at faultOriginally posted by JustAMan:Hello all,i would like to enquire abt this matter,my friend A was being assaulted the other day,he was drinking at a pub then he was assaulted by a bunch of ppl,n from what he told me,he know this bunch of ppl..eventually from what he told me,he was drinking with his friends at a pub,n he was assaulted by his friends outside of the pub.so he went to the hospital during which he make a police report at the hospital.as from he told me,he was tipsy that night n he forgot to take his police report n medical report n went home,so the problem now is he knows this bunch of ppl who assaulted him n he had already gave there details,so now hes asking me is it possible to make a civil suit against the attackers n what to do next if u were him?Can someone kindly help on this?Thx n regards -

From what you say, it seems like he has a cause of action under the tort of trespass to a person. It seems a case of batteryOriginally posted by JustAMan:Hello all,i would like to enquire abt this matter,my friend A was being assaulted the other day,he was drinking at a pub then he was assaulted by a bunch of ppl,n from what he told me,he know this bunch of ppl..eventually from what he told me,he was drinking with his friends at a pub,n he was assaulted by his friends outside of the pub.so he went to the hospital during which he make a police report at the hospital.as from he told me,he was tipsy that night n he forgot to take his police report n medical report n went home,so the problem now is he knows this bunch of ppl who assaulted him n he had already gave there details,so now hes asking me is it possible to make a civil suit against the attackers n what to do next if u were him?Can someone kindly help on this?Thx n regards
Typically, he'll have to prove 3 things, directness, interference and unlawfulness.
He can also leave it to the police or he can report it and file this suit against them. It's up to him. But its best that he consults a lawyer before taking any action. Get it quick because the limitations for civil actions regarding intentional torts is typically shorter than those for unintentional torts. -
its up to her uncle liaoOriginally posted by bad egg: hello all,i need to hear opinions.there is this gal who have made a credit card fraud on her uncle's card but didnt got her deserve like gg to jail instead she was able to go back to work at family's business.her uncle gave her a chance ,but she does not repent at all.,not even remorseful.i just wondering there is any tian li?? -
By the way, get him to retrieve a copy of his police report. It will cause unhappiness in the station for those in-charge of the reports, but it's essential that his civil action does not contradict his police report.
Certain things to look out for are provocation and self-defence by either party. Also, if your friend was challenged to a fight and he agrees, meaning he expressly or implictly gives consent, he's done too.
Basically, it is typically easier to prove a civil rather than a criminal action as the standard of proof is lower in civil action. Go for it if he really thinks it worth it. -
