The court (judge or jury) will decide. If your boyfriend has a public defender, he or she will attempt to plea bargain. If he prefers private counsel, try www.attorneypages.com. Understand if he is on probation, the probation can be revoked and enhanced sentencing may be given.
Here are a few laws to review:
