In prison when you serve two months do u get one month off?

Question

my bf is serving nine months for being set up to be a get away driver of a robbery he's doing 9 months in prison but recently did 10 months last year. Is there any way he would get out early for good behavior or like the question before do u get 1 month free for every 2 months served?

Answer 1

You can earn good time, which takes days off your sentence , by working .You also can have time added to your sentence if you are put in segregation for fighting , gang related activities or other rule violations , if he would like to find out his good time he should request it from the classification department at the prison

Answer 2

No vacations. Your conduct determines if you get out early, or stay a little longer.
No serve 2, get out 1. You get 9 months, you might be out in 8 mos, 3 weeks.

Answer 3

I work at a federal prison and it works in years not months...so yea he is pretty much gonna serve the whole sentence. Our federal inmates get 54 days a year

Answer 4

For a ten year sentence you serve five. For one year you serve around 6 months

Answer 5

it sounds like your bf is was convicted of a state crime, if that is the case when you serve a day you get a day off for good behavior, for local and state charges only, for federal crimes you serve 85% of your sentence. i hope this answers your question.

Answer 6

No, you don't get a serve-two, get-one-free deal. However, if he behaves, he can get a month or two shaved off the sentence. He can be a snitch also, which helps make the experience easier on him. I heard you get priviledges when you help the guards out. Yet, tell your bf that when Butch finds out, grip the soap when taking a shower!

Answer 7

if his behavior in the time of his impression's ment is nice then he will behaving his credits added for his good behaviour and at the time of functions like independence day and other famous days ,the people having good credits in behaviour ,they have a lottery of 5 ,out of which he may come
else you can approach a criminal lawyer and ask for case details

Answer 8

it all depends on what the judge said while he was getting sentenced.but yeah i dont think he'll serve the whole ninne months.maybe get out a month or two early.depends on wether he was good in there or not.

Answer 9

I believe there is time off for good time spent, but nine months only not sure, wish you the best, and good luck with your situtation.

Answer 10

Nope that only works in county jail not state prison. he is ine there for the duration of what the board set as his parole date, no sooner, no later. sorry!
