You can go to jail for a harassment charge if the charge included some kind of lewd sexual act, or physical assault. If the harassment was suggestive or verbally threatening a restraining order may be put in place.

I would think so unless if s/he is stated as non guilty in court. And if you have proof that s/he was doing this.

Harrassment is normally a misdemeanor criminal offense. After being arrested, you will then be granted or denied bail, and will go through the entire process of being accused of a crime.
