Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas

My sons girlfriend attacked him while she was highly intoxicated, with a knife, scratched him on his neck with her fingernails and bit his finger. She did this in front of their 3 children. She was arrested and charged with felony aggravated assault during a domestic violence incident. She was arrested 3 years ago for domestic violence against my son as well. What is the likely hood she will go to prison this time? Is it possible her case will be dismissed?
