Mr Harmsey had to have a metal plate fitted and now speaks with a lisp, Carlisle Crown Court heard.
Moore admitted causing grievous bodily harm and was given a 12-month sentence, suspended for two years.
He was also ordered to carry out 150 hours of unpaid community work.
Mr Harmsey spent two nights in hospital after his jaw was broken in two places and could not eat solid food for eight weeks, the hearing was told.
