Assuming you are referring to NJSA 2C:14-4, the sentencing range depends on the gradation of the offense charged. If it is graded as a 4th degree crime, you are potentially exposed to a State Prison sentence of up to 18 months. If the charge is graded as a disorderly persons offense, you are exposed to a County Jail sentence of up to 6 months. Contact an experienced criminal defense lawyer admitted to practice law in NJ before you go to Court, to discuss the possible defenses and potential dispositions that will not result in a crime that you cannot get off your record for at least 5-10 years. Good luck.
