They are served concurrently.
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.
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.
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.
Yes. I'm pretty sure.
Typically, when an offender receives multiple sentences, they serve them concurrently (at the same time) unless the judge specifically orders that they be served consecutively (one after the other). Factors such as the nature of the offenses, sentencing guidelines, and the judge's discretion can influence whether the sentences are served concurrently or consecutively.
No. What you have described is a concurrent sentence (concurrent means at the same time). A consecutive sentence is served after another one (consecutive means following on).
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.

Always Answer Accurately. Sentences with words that all begin with the same letter.
The correct phrase is "On the same plane". A plane in this case being a level of development, existence, or achievement.
The term concurrency means the property of being concurrent; concurrent means happening at the same time. It is often used in respect to jail sentences. Some people get to serve two or more jail sentences for different crimes at the same time. Or, someone could hold two different offices at the same time. One could therefore be serving concurrent jail sentences, or holding concurrent offices. We could then question the wisdom of the concurrency of the sentences or the offices.
No historical record of that being the case. Sorry.
