One year most likely.  The punishment is enforced more stringently when it is due to a probation/parole violation.  It's meant to set an example/send a message when one exhibits disregard for the conditions and terms established by the court.  Violations are not treated favorably!  Sorry to be the bearer of bad news by the way.  Hope for the best but plan and expect the worst!  Good luck

It would depend upon many factors.  Anything from a community order for a youthful offender where no weapon was shown and little violence was involved to 12 or more years custody where serious injury to the victim occurred is possible.

In Missouri a second degree assault is considered a class C felony.  The punishment is "not to exceed 7 years."  So basically the maximum prison sentence is 7 years.  As it is a first offense they probably won't seek the maximum.  There is always the chance that you'll have a good judge, or that the DA will offer you a plea bargain.  GOOD LUCK!

talk to the public defender.  perhaps he can get a statement from your boyfriend and use it in defense of your case.  hopefully you'll just have to pay a fine and spend less than a year in jail.  good luck.\n\nmaybe plead guilty in exchange for 2 years probation and then they drop the charges after 2 years.

Chances are very good if he's already on probation.  It's up to the individual judge, but most cases I've heard of like this did get jail time.

If charges are filed, persued and she is found guilty how long she will serve depends on what State she is in, what the exact charges filed would be, and who the judge doing the sentencing is.  Sometimes in these cases, depending on the jurisdiction, probation is possible.  Also,  what he did and his past record of bad/criminal behavior is irrelevant to how much time she will serve.

Indeed depends on the amount and if it was recovered. Revovery of the money (if the lawyer is any good) can get you a deal from 'better' prison to 50% off.\n\nOfficially punishable by as much as 2-4 years in a state prison, regardless of the value of taken property, money, or labor for repeat offenders.

It all depends on where you are.  First check to see what county it is in and check the Superior Court website (court may be called something else).  Then check if available the court calendar and minute entries.  The minute entries will give you more detailed information.  \n\nIf the person was sentenced to jail (less than 1 year) you can check at the county sheriff's office for more information.  If the person was sent to department of corrections (prison) check the state d.o.c. website.

its a felony assault the person who did this should be arrested, and could get as little as 2 years in prison, if its a first offense it would probably be about 2 yrs.\n(family Experience)

Suspended sentence with about 2 to 3 years probation.\n  Next time you will serve time for real.

well strike the 3rd answer down dude.false imprisonment is something that happens more than you think especially in states that do not have discovery laws .and in my opinon they do not have those laws for the simple reason they want to be able to railroad the poor and innocent and "falsely Imprison"them.The southern states ars real good about that.\nas long as there is no discoverly then the prosecution can hide facts that downright prove the charged person is innocent.And yes they knowingly do this just to embellish their conviction record to help futher their careers down the road and the part that kills me is not only are these low lifes still able to sleep but,the Law lets them get away with it and when it is,(years later usually)discovered there is nothing the innocent person can do to get back the freedom that was taken from him.

depens on how the sentence was handed down and if the person has to serve the time concurrently or not but mostplaces have things where you can work inside and get extra days for doing different things so it is possible that someone could get credit for 3 days at a time so its possible 30 days to the full sentence like i stated earlier depending on the sentencing guidelines handed down by the judge
