what is usually the penalty for affray? does anybody know


'No person of reasonable firmness need actually be, or be likely to be, present at the scene.'

Firmness? You mean, like... turgidity?

Look at subsection 5, which says that affray can be in private, and compare that with the statement that affray 'in English law' means that it must be in public. Is this referring to English common law, as opposed to the statutory offence created (renewed?) by the 1986 Act? 212.219.158.202 08:28, 18 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]
