Will An Arrest effect my conditional green card status?

Hello,

I got my conditional green card in april 2009 through my wife, due to some marital issues we got divorced in august 2009.I got remarried in Sept with another woman, realized that me and my ex wife still love each other and we wanted to get back together. So last month I told my current wife that I want to get back with my ex, she said ok and moved out just last month in jan 2010.

This month feb 2010, she came back to get the rest of the stuff and I was home with my ex wife and she saw me and my ex together and due to jealousy she started fighting with me over her mail. She started hitting me and when I was trying to stop her from hitting me I pushed her back. My ex was trying to stop me and her all the while, anyways she walked outside and dialled 911 on me, when the police came my ex told that we were just in a scuffle so the police arrested both me and my current wife due to domestic violence. We spent a night in jail and the next day the judge released both of us but there will be a court hearing next month, according to the cops and people close by they say unless we both dont press charges against each other it will be dismissed.

I was just wondering will this have any major affects on my having my unconditional greencard. I am still planning to get back with my ex on whos name I had gotten the GC in the first place. Any advice wil be helpfull.

And how USCIS views his rapid sequence of marriages and divorce when he files the I-751. First marriage ended 4 months after GC approval, remarriage happened just 1 month after the divorce, then this latest marriage practically ended 4 months after it began. If he wasn't going back to the original wife, I'd say he would be doomed when it is time for the I-751.

Well If my ex doesnt take me back, she is willing to write a letter on my behalf that we seperated due to personal diffrences and not otherwise. I was being stupid she had kids from previouse marriege and when I got my temp green card I just couldnt stand the kids anymore, but when I was away from here I realized even with the kids she did more then anybody ever did for me.I now accept my mistakes and want to fix things even willing to go couple counseling for this,hopefully she will take me back.But she told me that if she doesnt take me back she is willing to speak on my behalf,will this be of any help?
 
I am slighly confused since the focus of your posts keeps shifting from one issue to the other. What is more important here? Being with her again or ensuring you get unconditional PR status?

But she told me that if she doesnt take me back she is willing to speak on my behalf,will this be of any help?
 
Of course having her back in my life is most important but at the same time, she is a citizen and I am not, If she takes me back and I still dont get my unconditional green card for the reasons (such as divorcing and remarrying and then the arrest) then Ill have to go back to my country leaving her here which will be very hard for me. At this point being with her and being here in US is more important to me I guess.
