Try to have it plea-bargained to a lesser offense

Not knowing where you live but just in general, I'd say you'd probably get court probation (unsupervised) or short term regular probation. Assault is not technically what it seems: it is legally an attempt at battery, or a precursor to battery. Thus, a completed "assault" is usually classifieed as an "assault and battery." If they threw all first offenders into custody even for 90 days they'd grind our legal system to a halt and overflow the jails! Not to mention probably make criminals out of all the would be "one and done-ers". The majority of people incarcerated in jails for more than two weeks are repeat and chronic offenders who find themselves in the system's revolving door. Throw in first and second offenders who may or may not have certain mitigating factors in their case, and you've thrown 45% of the country into jail.

If you were already on probation and committed yet ANOTHER offense, you will probably be remanded to jail to serve the remainder of the original sentence - as well as being tried and possibly convicted and sentenced for the new offense.
