This question is a little tricky because of its phrasing. It sounds like the crime you're asking about is one that is relatively minor and wouldn't ordinarily involve jail time.
"Three strikes" laws in most states require that the first and/or second offense be a violent felony. Such a crime would almost certainly involve an extended sentence in jail, so to say that the criminal would "then go to jail" after a third offense is a little misleading because he probably has already been in jail.
Take California as an example. Most supporters of the "three strikes" law there probably intended to give a criminal with two prior convictions for serious felonies a much harsher sentence the third time around. Say some guy uses a gun to rob a store, gets caught, and goes to jail. He gets out only to do the same thing a second and third time. On the third go-around, the law punishes him with a much longer sentence.
You might have seen criticism of the law because the third crime doesn't have to be one that carries a big penalty if a first-time offender does it. Suppose the guy in the earlier example doesn't have a gun when he gets out the second time, so he shoplifts instead of committing armed robbery. For someone else, this crime would be a misdemeanor and might not involve any jail time, but for our guy, it's a felony (for reason other than "three strikes") and will carry a mandatory sentence of at least 25 years in jail.
Yes, but only if a mistrial was declared by the judge, not if the Defendant was acquitted.
If you are convicted of ANY CRIME, you could face jail time. Whether you will go to jail depends on other factors than just the commission of that crime.
any and every person convicted of a crime can go to jail ...
Most times you would be released.
a) He has not committed a crime b) He has not been convicted of committing a crime... c) ...yet.
Not unless he is convicted of a crime, which is extremely unlikely. Self-defense is not a crime.
The criminal was convicted of robbery and sentenced to prison for ten years.
If are convicted of a crime and go to jail, your employer will need to replace you. If you get probation it is up to him and the companies interest to reinstall you in the company or to let you go.
Being charged is not the same as being convicted. A person who has been charged might still be found innocent of the crime of which he or she has been charged. However, if you have been charged and also convicted of aggravated assault, that is a serious crime and it would involve jail time.
Not in the United States.Added: Such matters are not considered criminal, and are prosecuted under civil law, for which there is no jail penalty.
The maximum he could receive would be to serve the remainder of his sentence in jail - UNLESS - the probation violation involved committing a new offense. Then, if convicted for that crime too, he could also serve the sentence for that crime in addition.

Bail is the amount of money it takes to make bond (to get out of jail before being convicted, or sometimes formally charged). Bail is typically 10% of what the court ordered bond is.
