1 Answer from Attorneys
The judge has the right to sentence him to the full amount he could have originally given him. Armed robbery is punishable by life on each count, so 11 years is not unheard of. The only limitation is if he was originally sentenced as a youthful offender, then the judge is limited to 6 years prison. You should talk to his attorney to find out what is likely to happen.
