I am being charged with a section 20 and my trial date is four weeks away.
After a night out with friends I call my girlfriend and ask if I could go to hers. She says yes, so I got a taxi to hers bringing with me the few bottles I had left from a carry out I had earlier gotten.
After being there for about 10-20 mins there is a knock at the window. I see it is here ex boyfriend who she has children to banging on the window. He is looking at me waving his arms about saying " come on lefts have it!". I went to the door with no intention of fighting but to tell police will be on the way and to go away. ( THE WORST THING I EVER DID ).

I open the door and he comes in at me wih a knife. In my hand was a bottle a had been drinking from with over half the bottle left in it I instinctively hit him with it, causing him to need stitches. I remember him not bein fased by it at all and picking me up and throwing me on the floor punching and biting me. He then tried to pull my cheek away from my face with his fingers in my mouth. All of this has happened inside the house where he came in at me.
There has been alot of trouble with her ex before. He had tried to kick the door down to get to her one day, and shes was on the phone to me whilst it was happening. She was scared out of her wits. I felt helpless. He has been in court for gun crimes which he was given a 5 year suspended sentence. He has also been up for countless accounts of domestic violence having knocked my girlfriends tooth out on one occassion. Police turnt up after the ex had gone away and asked me a few questions and then left. I then decided that I didnt want to stay there after what had just happened and left in a taxi. I stayed in a friends house that night.

After getting a phone call off my parents telling me police had been to her house looking for me I handed myself in.
I was originally getting charged with a section 18 which was later dropped to a section 20 at my plea hearing. I pleaded not guilty on the grounds of self defense. Can some one give me some likely outcomes on my case as I speak to my family regularly about it but thery're biased an give me which i think is un-necessary hope.
I am still on bail were I can't speak to my girlfriend or enter her area code but I found out not so long ago that her ex had been round a week after the fight and smashed one of their childrens phones up and their television.
I have been arrested before for drunk and disorderly and was given a fixed pentaly notice but apart from that I have no criminal record.
