It really depends on the state, I think.

However, assuming the person who was assaulted was not an officer of the law, the most common charge is a disorderly persons offence, which, if I recall correctly can earn up to six months in jail, up to $1000 in fines, a $100 domestic abuse fine if applicable, as well as court fees.
