Sorry I dont relate with attacking little old ladies. My advice is to be honest about what happened and hope the judge has mercy and doenst send you to prison. Whatever it was she did to you that made you so mad I hope it is worth jail time. Next time you get mad walk away.

Yes, I can give advice. Take the lawyer offered to you by the court, and READ the law. You might be some help in your own defense. you might be able to get an appeal if your lawyer screws something up.
If you got in a fight with your mother-in-law, shame on both of you. Surely, things could have been decided before it deteriorated to a fight.
If you didn't throw something at her, or hurt her, chances are you will be able to get out of it without jail, unless you have a history of violent behavior/mental illness/scrapes with the law.
If you did hit her or throw something at her, get help. Don't waste anymore time dealing with conflict by throwing fits. Adults don't need to do that.
My son, in a paranoid episode of bi-polar, threw a log into the window of an oncoming car, causing the windshield to break. The people were not injured, but scared.
He is serving 1 year in prison for assault with a deadly missile. He also spent 6 months in a mental ward, and some time on "probation" in which he had to go to group therapy and take meds for bi-polar and schizophrenia.
He is getting uot next month, but now he is a felon with a history of mental illness, and violence. You want him working for you?
It was all a big surprise to all of us. No one had any idea he had a mental problem. We thought he was JUST a "nutty teenager." Well, he was.
Now our whole family is changed forever because we can't trust him.

yes, I can relate--My husband was charged w 2 counts of assault w a deadly weapon. His brother wanted to keep fighting $ when my husband went to leave his bro pulled his car behind Daniels...Daniel told him to move, he wouldn't, so Daniel pushed the other car with his car--it's not like he rammed it, how much speed can you get backing up 1/2 foot? Anyways, bc there were 2 people in his brothers car, he got 2 charges. He took the lawyer assigned to his case (no $ for a private atty, either) and got 1 year unsupervised deferred probation. (but that was bc his situation was so dumb..yours might be different) Take the lawyer--no way do you want to do it alone. Be calm, speak clearly and be respectful, no matter what's said to you.

Assault is threatening someone in a manner that makes them fearful for thier safety. If you had actually touched her, that would have been battery. You are faced with a felony and good get jail time, so you are entitled to a public defender if you really can't afford it. Which is good, because you might need to save your money for a divorce lawyer.
