We discuss the various existing proposals for the statistics of holons and spinons (the proposed fundamental excitations of the tJ model for HTSC), and we present new anyonic alternatives. We generalize Wilczek's realization of anyons to include non-identical anyons with mutual statistics and concentrate on particular cases which preserve time-reversal symmetry. Under the restriction of time-reversal symmetry, we find two additional possibilities for the statistics of holons and spinons - either both holons and spinons are bosons or both are fermions. In addition they obey an antisymmetric mutual statistics. We discuss the pairing mechanism of holons in this model, and the microscopic origins for this statistical behavior.
