Well – it depends on what state you are in – I am guessing NY – but I don’t know because their are many states that have 17th district courts.
Good Luck!!!
Maybe a year or two. Ask if you can give him bail so your bf won’t be in jail until the court hearings.
Obviously not long enough if he can’t handle probation.
Biggest thing I can say to help you is to drop this guy before he ruins your life…
each state has different laws and what not. and it also will depend on what the judge thinks is a reasonable jail term. to solve all the problems tell him to stop breaking the law.

A probation officer has the discretion to give a probationer a warning, or to make him appear before a court for a “probation violation” hearing. If you go to a hearing, the probation officer will typically ask that you face additional punishment, usually involving incarceration. There is no “hard and fast” rule for what type of probation violation will result in a probation violation hearing . One violation that is almost always considered serious is failing to appear for scheduled meetings with the probation officer. Being caught in possession of illegal drugs, or being arrested for another crime, will also typically result in a hearing before a judge. At times, the seriousness of the violation may depend upon the facts of the underlying offense — for example, if a person is convicted of being involved in a gang-related offense, the violation of probation through “association with known criminals” may be viewed more seriously than if the person is on probation for driving a car while his driver’s license was suspended.
If a person is convicted of a probation violation, sometimes the court will extend his probation, or impose additional terms. Often, the court will sentence the probationer to a period of time in jail, followed by the continuation of his probation. Sometimes, the probationer will be resentenced to jail or prison, or will be ordered to complete a term that was previously “suspended.”
Your “baby” could be in jail for any where from 30 days to six months.
Maybe you need to be a mother to a different “baby”.
This “baby” doesn’t sound like he has much of a future.
probation just means jail time was set aside. screw up enough and he can do all time he was originally sentenced to. sounds like this PO just slapping him or he would already be headed to (county) jail or prison.
now, when he gets home, it’s your turn to slap him; tell him to straighten up.
aww:( i dont really know im very very sorry.
If he’s on probation and violated terms he can go to jail for the full term of his original probated sentence.
probably he will spend the time that he was sentenced with before gettin on probation so if the judge says 6 months and he got probation then he will be in there for 6 months
I don’t know about your state but some places if you were released early and you violate your probation you go back in for the rest of your term, say if he had a six year sentence and only spent 3 years in and violated the probation he would go back for 3 years but it really depends on alot of different factors. if he has to go back to court you will find out then.
if it were up to me—20 years…..
I don’t know.
Try to avoid watching the TV show “OZ” while you are waiting for him. It could depress you.
