ok my BF was put back into jail for 6 more months, he was already in perison for 2 yrs, they pick him up in the 7 of this month, today they said 6 more months in jail,
do you think that he will get out sooner for good behavior or something and how would he go about that?
he is a really good person just got into some trouble a few yrs ago and still paying for it.

jail population, and correction systems manpower are the deciding factors for early release and parole. Good behavior plays a very small part. As long as he hasn't copped a "major case" (i.e. assault, rape, murder, or homosexual behavior),his behavior will not play a part in deciding release. If there are too many offenders waiting in county jails for an open bed at D.O.C.,they will grant early parole rather than pay the county for housing state inmates. If there is no backlog, they will keep offenders as long as possible. Some private prisons will create bogus "major cases" to keep offenders from making parole, the longer they are there, the more money these contractors make.Humans as a cash crop - Former prison guard. .

depends on his criminal record, what he is in jail for right now, and where he lives. If he lives in a place where the jail is over crowed, a lot of times they release some inmates early. But yes good behavior sometimes does count. Just behave basically. Do what you are told, don't start any trouble, especially any fights and remain cool with the guards

Varies by state and would need more details to be precise.
In general, a few years ago the federal government started requiring states to do TRUTH IN SENTENCING if the states (and their localities) were to continue to receive federal funds for building jail & prison facilities. requires the acualt time to be served to be within 85% of the dates.
Cannot continue to give 2 days off for each day the inmate behaves. Based upon this, it would depend when your BY received his sentence.
But if he follows the rules while in jail, he will not get additional charges filed against him - which would result in more time to be served.

If he is really good in jail he can go before a board of parole. That gives him a chance to be released on parole. You can also request a work release.

that depends on what he did in the first place and why he was taken back to jail now. If they say he has to go back to jail after being released he must have messed up on his probation. Honestly if you want a jail bird stay with him, if you want a real man, don't go out with one who's been in jail!
