Hey I know everybody probably asks a lot about this but I'm really looking for some answers and hopefully some reassurance :/
My boyfriend was up in court for abh and affray he pleaded not guilty as he didn't actually do anything but got found guilty of both charges he has been let out on bail but is now waiting for a sentencing :( he was honestly in the wrong place at the wrong time :/
What's the chances of him getting a suspended sentence ? He does have previous for battery and common assault
Please be honest what is he looking at and how long ?
I know it sounds shady that he didn't do anything considering his previous but honestly he really was in the wrong place at the wrong time

There are sentencing guidelines for Affray, Chris. Page 85 (that,s the document, not the pdf page no.) of this document.

If custodial sentences are imposed they will almost certainly be concurrent as the charges arose from the same incident.

Out of curiosity, Reddangel, how did the matter get to the Crown Court? Did the Magistrates decline jurisdiction or did your boyfriend elect Crown Court trial?
Thanks, NJ.

That will teach me not to trust the CPS website then!
