Usually its the remaining time of your probation. My friend violated his probation after 1 year. His probation was for 5 years and he has to serve the remaining 4. Jail time is different than "real" time. The equivalent of 7 months 21 days jail time is 1 real year. You could still be out earlier than that on good behavior.

It is determined by your State and how their Justice System works. In most cases if you fail to appear on a criminal summons, or a promise to appear by signing a traffic citation, the judge will order an arrest warrant with a bond amount. If you are arrested, you must post the bond amount in full or pay a bondsman a percentage of the bond to be released. The judge also has the option to mandate a "cash only" bond in which case you have to pay the full amount in cash, no bondsman option. In more severe cases, as in domestic, restraining orders, or in felony cases, you will not have the "no bond" arrest warrant and you have to wait in jail until you are able to appear before the judge at his leisure and scheduling.

Probation IS a sentence for being found guilty and NOT a "get out of jail free card!" If you violate it it can be revoked by the judge and you could be remanded to jail to to serve the remainder of the sentence behind bars.

Violation of probation puts you back into jail to complete the original sentence. If that was the sentence (no jail time originally) there is likely to be a sentencing hearing.

This is up to the discretion of the judge. From no jail time at all up to the maximum allowed by law for their probation charge.

I NEED HELP my boyfriend was arrested today for violating probation for not notifying them of his new address.how much time will he expect to serve?

There's no way of answering this question. It is totally up to the discretion of the judge who originally sentenced him. If the judge believes he intentionally failed to report his change of addres in an effort to avoid probation requirements, he COULD be sent to jail to serve the remainder of his sentence behind bars.
