The probated sentence is a jail sentence that you are allowed to serve free as long as you behave. The maximum sentence from the judge is the time you have remaining on probation. The minimum is usually 30 days, sometimes they will see you sooner, but that is up to the judge. If you are fortunate, the judge will release you after that time an put you back on probation.
