Re: Concurrent Sentancing in Iowa
His parole will get revoked and he'll do the bit on the original sentence. Whatever he's going to get off the plea to the B felony (25 years indeterminate) will run at the same time as the original sentence until the shorter of the two expires and then it'll keep going on the longer sentence.
It's a gift.
