About 4 months ago my boyfriend was arrested and charged with a domestic battery. He he was arrested 3 days ago, and was charged with violation of probation because he did not go to any of his batterer's prevention appointments,anger management classes, and did not meet with his probabtion officer. He has a court date on 01/31/06. What is the most that he can be charged with since this is his first time being on probation and its his first time violating probation? Does he need a lawyer? And if he is sentenced to spend time in jail how much time do you think it would be?
