If both(all) sentences are being served at the same time, they are said to run concurrently, which means all at the same time. If they ran consecutively that means they would run one after the other.

When sentenced to CONSECUTIVE sentences, one sentence must be completed before serving the next. With no time off for parole or good behavior, three consecutive sentences of 3 years would be 9 years. If sentenced to CONCURRENT sentences of 3 years, all sentences are served at the same time, so that would be 3 years.

What does concurrent mean in court?
Concurrent, frequently used to describe the running of two or more sentences that are meted out at the same time, refers to the running of both (or more) sentences at the same time. It is to be contrasted with consecutively wherein the person being sentenced must serve one sentence before he starts serving the second sentence. For example, if you are sentenced on Count I to serve eight years, and you are sentenced on Count II to serve 4 years, and the judge imposes the sentences to be served "concurrently," then the defendant serves 8 years. However, if the judge imposes the sentencesd to be served "consecutively," the defendant will serve 12 years.
What is the difference between a consecutive sentence and a concurrent sentence in criminal cases?
If you are convicted of more than one offense, concurrent sentences run together with a max of the longest sentence. Consecutive sentences run one after the other. For example, say that you are convicted of three crimes with sentences of 5, 3, and 2 years. If the sentences are run concurrently, you would get out in 5 years less good time. If the sentences run consecutively, you would get out in 10 years (5+3+2) less good time. Eligibility for parole are treated the same. Consecutive means the years follow each other or are added on to the sentence. Concurrent means the years are served at the same time.
