Question: My sister makes me really mad sometimes. If I were to, say, stab her in the arm with a pen, would that be considered assault?

Answer: YES. Arizona Law (ARS §13-1203) says intentionally causing physical harm to anyone is ASSAULT. If your sister makes you this mad maybe you should have a discussion as a family to try and solve the problem. Stabbing her in the arm with a pen is not going to help you solve the problem.
