How much time will I serve on a federal sentence?
Return to FAQsTranscript:
Generally speaking, most defendants end up serving 85% of whatever sentence the judge imposes, so that means if the judge imposes a year and a day or more, you’ll receive a sentence of 85% of that. You will serve a sentence of 85% of that. There is no federal parole so that’s going to be your sentence, bottom line.
