Your friend was provoked but instead of ignoring it and walking away he hit the guy with a glass. That makes him guilty. Abh is very seldom a prison offence and this is at the low end of the scale . He needs to plead guilty and tell the court how sorry he is, I would be VERY surprised if he gets more than a small fine or possibly a few hours community service.

no provocation merits a glass in the face..hope he learns from it...
