What is the name of your state (only U.S. law)? south carolina

alright well
a friend of my brother was at my house
i don't like him for several reasons

we were talking trash to each other
and he ended up running at me and trying to punch me
followed by us wrestling until my brother broke it up

since i wrestled him back, can i file for assault?

You can both be charged with a crime ... or neither ... or one and not the other. Is this a road you want to travel down?
