A: They can revoke the rest of your sentence. All the time left on your sentence can be revoked for jail time. Depending on the time of charge or/and the judge you can be revoked and have to serve day for day.
A: The amount of time that can be revoked on the old case is dependent upon several factors. One of the driving factors, is the terms of the original sentence. If the original sentence was under the First Offender Act or had special conditions attached to it, new charges could result in a full revocation. If the original sentence did not contain any of the previously mentioned issues, a revocation would be capped at the maximum amount of time for the new charges.
