Criminal law
what is the maximum sentence for shooting someone?
when is a person eligable for parole if they were sentenced five to twenty years?
Re: Criminal law
That is aggravated assault, a felony of the first degree, and the maximum term is 20 years imprisonment.
"By law, someone is eligible for parole after serving 50% of his sentence unless he committed (1) a crime where the underlying facts and circumstances involved the use, attempted use, or threatened use of force, which makes him eligible only after serving 85% of the sentence or (2) certain serious crimes that are ineligible for parole."
