Answer:

- Ben has not committed an assault or a battery because he acted in self defense.

Explanation:

As per the question, the statement that illustrates a true claim regarding the given situation is that Ben has neither committed an assault or battery as whatever he did(shoving Mike) was just an action in self-defense to protect himself from Mike's blow. It was Mike who attempts to strike Ben at first while the latter was just attempting to safeguard himself from his blow. Therefore, Ben's actions could not be considered either an offense/assault or battery as he acted in Self-defense and not intentionally.
