A judge exercises wide discretionary powers in sentencing cases that come before him, except (in the US) where the legislatures have written mandatory sentences into the statute law. The judge may NOT change these mandatory minimums.
No, that is why it is called a MANDATORY minimum sentence. The judge has no discretion.
The judge determines whether sentences are concurrent or consecutive based on factors such as the nature and severity of the offenses, the defendant's criminal history, and the impact on victims. Concurrent sentences allow defendants to serve multiple sentences simultaneously, while consecutive sentences require them to serve one after the other. The judge may also consider statutory guidelines and the recommendations of the prosecution and defense. Ultimately, the decision aims to achieve a fair and just outcome that reflects the circumstances of the case.
The judge does not request any "evidence." What they request is the background and criminal history (if any) of the defendant appearing before them for sentencing so that they may make an appropriate judgment on the harshness or leniency of the sentence they will impose.

The level of penalty that each court can impose varies based on the jurisdiction and the specific laws applicable to the case. Generally, lower courts, such as municipal or district courts, may impose fines, community service, or short-term incarceration, while higher courts, like superior or appellate courts, can impose more severe penalties, including longer prison sentences or substantial fines. In some cases, courts can also impose restitution or probation. Ultimately, the severity of the penalty is influenced by the nature of the offense and the legal guidelines in place.
