Best Answer

It depends on what grounds the first appeal was filed. If you feel strongly about your position you should appeal the Appeals Court ruling to your state Supreme Court. Otherwise, you could try for a second appeal based on the harshness of the sentence. They would either decline to hear itl. or the might possibly grant you a new hearing based on those specific grounds.

Is this a question a complete sentence?

If you are asking whether the words "Is this a question" make a complete sentence, yes-- but not a declarative sentence. They make a question, and they need a question mark at the end. A declarative sentence is just a statement of fact: "Yes, this is a complete sentence." But a question is where you ask someone about something: "Do you have any questions to ask me?"

After someone's parole is revoked how long does the state have to tell that person their sentence?

If you were on parole, then you KNEW what your original sentence was. If your parole was revoked there is no need to tell you how much time you have to serve - it will be the same as your original sentence. UNLESS - your parole was revoked because you committed another offense. THEN - not only will you serve your original sentence your prison time will be increased by whatever the sentence is for your new offense.
