Probation Violation Jail Time
My question involves criminal law for the state of: Virginia
hi my boyfried just got a violation of probation by getting a ticket for driving on a suspended license in virginia. he originally got on probation for a dui/ possesion of alcohol under 21. His original sentence was 1 year jail time but the judge suspended it and gave him probation for 1 year. He was about to be off probation 2 weeks before he got this ticket.Do you think he is facing jail time? how much?

It is up to the judge, however, he can face up to whatever jail time that would be allowed by law under the original sentence.
