This is a difficult question to answer, because unlike provisions under the Qld Criminal Code, there is generally no "time" in terms of a jail sentence given under the law of torts. The remedies in the law of tort, under which battery exists, offers mainly nominal damages. Damages in the form of exemplary and aggravated damages.
If you're worried about "time" the Criminal Code sets out provisions through which criminal assault is addressed. For common assault (which is similar to battery) an offender is liable for 3 years impriOSonment. Then again, all relevant circumstances and factors of the offence must be taken into account.
