I am a 25 year old male that has just been charged with (2) counts of Misdemeanor Battery in the State of Illinois, I have no prior convictions and only one prior arrest in my life (back in 2000 for kicking over a city dumpster, [Disorderly Conduct]) which was thrown out. These charges are false, and because of this the two people charging me are not even bothering showing up for court (or so I have been told by a mutual friend).
Can anyone tell me what are the chances I'll be facing incarceration/fines/etc. and what the most likely outcome will be? Everyone keeps telling me not to worry but it's different when you are the once facing possible jailtime.
Thanks
