You need to re-ask your question. Battery is NOT a felony (maximum penalty $1000/1 year in jail). If you were charged with AGGRAVATED battery, which is a serious felony, you can serve between one and twenty years. Either way the fact you posted here is alarming as it means you face charges without counsel. Each day you wait to hire a lawyer hurts you, and you should have already hired one.
