    What's the possible sentence?
    My boyfriend right now has not been going to his probation meetings for close to 6 months.
    He was on the 24/7 program, was watching a football game, fell asleep, and ended up sleeping through it. This was back in August. He knew that if he turned himself in he would be held for a long period so... He decided to wait until after Christmas to spend that with his family.
    My question is...
    How long to you figure he'll be held in prison?
    He only had 4 months left to serve on his original charge, but will they also tack on a year+ to that four months or what?
    I've never really been in trouble with the law so I don't understand the situation at all...
    If you could help answer the question I would appreciate it...

    Hello alm:

    How much he had left has nothing to do with it. He can be made to serve his entire sentence as if he never spent a day on probation. I don't know what his sentence was, so I couldn't tell you how much of it they'll make him serve.
