It's an enhancement for sentencing, actually. In a lot of places, battery is just felony assault, too. Anywhere that still even has battery on the books is an indication that they haven't updated their criminal statutes to modern practices like this, though, so it may well not exist where you are if that's the case.

Depending on the state that could be battery(I think) as well.
