It depends on what the prosecutor and the judge agrees on. Not every state offers early release on good behavior either.
My husband was sentenced 2-7 years for a check forgery charge. That means he will have to serve 2 years in prison. After the 2 years are up may be eligible to get out on parole. He would then be on Parole for 5 years. The remaining of his sentence he will be on parole and follow the rules. If any of the rules are broken, then he serves the remaining time he has left of his sentencing, in prison.
Probation is different from parole. Each state has different guidelines. I would encourage you to speak with a lawyer to get a clear cut answer on your specific situation.

After that, the guy might or no longer be released on licence. in the event that they breach the licence for something of the time, they bypass returned to prseon to serve something. something over 3 years, 2 thirds of the sentence ought to served earlier licence is considered. whether, some sentences are returned-dated to the time of arrest. Is it accessible the guy served time in custody earlier trial?
