La victime de voies de fait criminelles peut préférer intenter une poursuite en s'appuyant sur le droit de la responsabilité délictuelle plutôt que d'appeler la police, parce que ce choix peut lui procurer un avantage pécuniaire, ce qui ne serait pas le cas s'il s'agissait d'une poursuite fondée sur le droit criminel. La victime peut vouloir poursuivre son agresseur, mais ne veut pas nécessairement que celui-ci aille en prison. 4, record 2, French, - agresseur
