First Time offense.Will I get jail time ?
I had an argument with my parents and my father attempted to hit me so I hit him lightly. I got charged for simple assault and harrassment for yelling in the house. This is my first offense. Will I get jail time?

No jail time, but you have to live in the jail of a dysfunctional family. Jail is the least of your problems. If you only knew.

It does not sound that way. How old are you. I would advise getting an attorney because it is a criminal charge.

Whether you get jail time is ultimately up to the judge. In theory at least you can do up to one year if you are convicted of both of these charges. You should definitely speak with a lawyer before you go to court on this case to see what your options are. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to yours in various courts throughout New Jersey in the past. Please contact me to discuss your case in more detail. I never charge for simply talking to a person about their case. Thank you.
