Re: Time
It would be hard to give you an accurate answer without more information. However he will now be facing not only the new charge, but also the violation of probation based on both the new arrest and the dirty urine.
This will be in front of the same judge who handled the DUI and he/she probably won't be too pleased.
When was he placed on probation for the DUI?
What does the victim in the battery case want to see happen?
Feel free to give me a ring or email with the above info and I can help you further.
take care,
