    Question Probation Violation Consequences

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Texas

    ok, my boyfriend was charged with agg. robbery, and served 8 months and county jail, he got out on 10 years probation and was only out 2 months before he violated prob with evading arrest detention with vehicle, he has been in county jail for almost 2 months, still hasnt been to court, does anyone know how much time he's up against? I have no idea?

    At the time he received probation, how much time was left on his sentence?

    He could face staying in jail for whatever the rest of his original sentence was.

    Happy Trails was asking what was the original jail sentence (1yr, 2yrs, etc.). You've already stated that he served 8 months but we need to know what the original sentence was.

    Example: If the original sentence was for 3 years and served only 8 months, then he could possibly have to serve the remaining length of the original sentence: 28 months (36 - 8).

    If he was on probation, then it wasn't the whole sentence.

    He received probation in lieu of some part of the jailed term. That is the part we need to understand.
