it all depends on your past and if u behave when u are in prison good time classes if the prison is over populated
Twenty years. A prison sentence is typically issued in two parts, the minimum (the time you must serve before being eligible for parole) and the maximum (the time you must serve--statutory time--before you would be discharged). If the minimum is twenty years, and there is no "Good Time" law in your state, then you will serve twenty years before being considered for parole. With such a long minimum, it is highly unlikely you will receive parole your first time up. It is most likely that you will serve until the halfway mark between your minimum and maximum. If the maximum (statutory time) is twenty years, refer to your minimum and check your expected release date. If you were given a flat twenty year sentence, you will serve twenty years, provided there is no Disciplinary Credit awarded in your state.
The answer lies within the question. 4 to 10 years means - you must serve a minimum of 4 years but you can serve up to a maximum of 10 years. Any length of time falling between those two times set by law, is at the discretion of the sentencing judge or jury.

In Maryland, a person convicted of first-degree assault can face a maximum sentence of up to 25 years in prison. However, the actual sentence received may vary based on the specific circumstances of the case and any mitigating factors present.
Defendants don't generally "serve time." "Time" is served by those who have been sentenced.That being said, for a first sentence with no extenuating or sentence modifying factors, one convicted of first degree burglary could expect a maximum sentence of up to twenty years. Other factors determine the minimum sentence.
Question is unclear. If you only serve only 30% of the 8 year sentence, you would serve 2 years and 4 months. If you mean you were having 30% knocked off the 8 years, you would serve 5 years and 6 nmonths.

how much time does voluntary manslaughter carry in washington, dc
You'd assume they'd serve the 7 years they were sentenced with (unless it's a suspended sentence). They would have to serve 7 years, unless they are given a parole period before the full term.
