Will I go to jail if my opponent’s spleen is removed during a fight? Are there any other legal options?

Whether the other party will go to jail for fighting depends on the specific circumstances, such as making positive compensation and apology, and trying to get the victim's forgiveness as much as possible. The fight caused minor or even serious injuries to the other party's spleen, which meets the elements of the crime of intentional injury.

Legal Analysis

A fight that results in the removal of the other party's spleen constitutes a minor injury and generally leads to imprisonment. It depends on whether the victim's forgiveness can be obtained. The crime of intentional injury refers to the behavior of the perpetrator who intentionally and illegally damages the physical health of others. If the crime of intentional injury is constituted, the sentencing starting point can be determined within the corresponding range according to the following different circumstances: If intentional injury causes minor injury to one person, the sentencing starting point can be determined within the range of fixed-term imprisonment or criminal detention of less than two years. If intentional injury causes serious injury, the starting point for sentencing can be determined within the range of fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than five years. For those who intentionally injure someone with particularly cruel means and cause serious injuries, causing level 6 severe disability, the sentencing starting point can be determined within the range of fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years but not more than 13 years. Except for those who should be sentenced to life imprisonment or more according to law. On the basis of the starting point for sentencing, the amount of punishment can be increased and the base sentence can be determined based on other criminal facts that affect the composition of the crime, such as the consequences of the injury, the level of disability, the cruelty of the means, etc. If intentional injury results in minor injuries, the degree of disability may be considered when determining the starting point for sentencing, or may be used as a basis for adjusting the sentencing circumstances.
