Assuming your question is in the employment context, you could lose your job. It really depends on many factors not provided here. You should be cooperative with your employer, which is legally required to investigate any complaint of sexual harassment. If you have witnesses or other evidence that can support you, don't hold back, as employers can terminate most employees at will, even if sexual harassment cannot be proven.
Charged by a co-worker at work, you face termination and a lawsuit.
Charged in criminal court, you face potential prison.
Either way, if serious about getting legal counsel to represent you, feel free to contact me. I've been handling such cases for over 20 years.
