A: if the order was for 3 years it is for 3 years.

if there was time in custody it had to be more serious.............

though you may be making a mistake by letting him back in your life if that is your decision you can talk to his lawyer to try to get probation modified...........on the other hand if your concern is his getting out and hurting you then you may want to talk to local police to alert them and possible contact a lawyer out there
