Section 39 has a MAXIMUM sentence of 6 months prison .There is a reduction of 1/3rd for an early guilty plea so the very most you could get would be 6 months reduced by 1/3rd to 4 months.
The maximum sentence is rare, most cases are not sent to jail but get short community service orders. We need more detail of what happened to give a better answer.
By the way even if you did get the 4 months you would get released after 2 months , and in practice it would be less even than that as you would probably be released ''on tag'' after a month inside.

Basically I had a arguement with my gf and caused her a few injuries like grab marks and so on am I likely to not be sent to prison thou as I will plead guilty I'm with my gf again and we are making a fresh start also I have never been in trouble and I have asked for a anger management course to be set up for me
I would imagine a short community service order .

What percentage would you say I have got of being sent down I'm really worried I just would like them to understand that it was a complete one off and that we are back together and happy and having a fresh start I'm willing to take anger management classes to make sure it would never happen again and I have a clean record
It is very very unlikely that you will go to prison.
Given your gf has taken you back etc...no previous ...you may just receive Slappy fingers and admonished....make sure it is brought up that gf asked for restrictions to be removed and that you intend going to anger management...learn from this...good luck..let us know how you get on..
