Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

auto theft

My husband was charged with unauthorized use of vehicle in Sept. 08, sentenced to 9 months in the state of New York, The state of

Virginia has an order of transportation to pick him up on his

release date, which is 3/11/09. What do you think he will be charged with. The vehicle was taken from Virginia, and found in New york. Can they charge him the same as New York? The New York court charged him with unauthorized use ofa motor vehicle, and dropped it to a misdeamener. Anything I could do before he arrives in Virginia to get him out would be good to know.
