Was there just a misunderstanding between what your attorney said and what the papers say? In other words do your papers say three, but you understood it to be two? If so, it will be three since it is your responsibility to read, know and understanding what you are saying.

Thank you for responding, in answer to your questions
I would love to read the paperwork if the attorney would either forward them on to me or at least answer a phone call from me or return a phone call,, it was clearly understood that the attorney said 2 years not 3 years and he said this before the sentencing and after the sentencing.. The original crime was robbery w/ bodily injury, the plea was to be simple robbery( per the attorney)
The papers that my son signed said 2 years and now that he has been placed from county to state the term is showing 3 years
Offense Date Offense Sentence Date County Sentence(Y-MM-DD)
2007-08-20 ROB-BOD INJ 2008-05-13 HARRIS 3-00-00
As for anything being added to him for contempt or behavior in jail that would be no, although the attorney probably should have had a contempt on previous occassions in court,, My son was in PC at County Jail in the L.E.T. and had no problems there whatsoever.
I hope that this has answered all your questions and again thank you so much
