[Pet Police] Min-ji breeds German Shepherd dogs. Daniel, who lives down the street, took in a stray dog loosely identified as a Corgi-plus. The dog, Casanova, would definitely be classified as a mixed breed. Daniel allowed Casanova to roam freely. Unfortunately, Casanova went to visit Min-ji's purebred German Shepherd. Mixed breed puppies resulted from the visit. Min-ji was incensed. She started a campaign to round up all of the stray dogs, including Casanova, and haul them off to the animal shelter. She picked up a few cats as well. She posted signs all over the neighborhood saying that no animal, neither dog, cat, nor fowl, should come into her yard and that she was going to begin shooting the next time an animal entered her property. Daniel and some of the other neighbors took offense. Daniel came to Min-ji's house while she was working in the yard. He walked behind her and shoved her. Min-ji did not see him coming. Min-ji turned around and proceeded to have a heated conversation with Daniel. Min-ji then drew her fist back and told Daniel that she was going to punch him in the nose. Min-ji raised back her arm and started to punch Daniel but he stepped back, and all she managed to do was jab him in the shoulder, causing no actual pain. Liz, who was walking by on the street, saw Min-ji attempting to hit Daniel. Liz came over and grabbed Min-ji's hands, pinning Min-ji 's hands behind her back.
-Min-ji's action in jabbing Daniel after she missed his nose constitutes which of the following?
A) Battery.

C) Nothing, because she missed the nose, and Daniel was not actually hurt.
D) Nothing, because by entering Min-ji's yard, Daniel consented to any offensive touching.
