More details to this question:
My fiancé brother got charged last year with 1st degree assault Because he stabbed a guy and got probation and a few days ago he punched his girlfriend in the eye and bruised up her upper right leg. He got charged with domestic violence which is a felony in the state of Tennessee. I just wanna know how long he's going to jail/prison because of this.

If he is on probation and picks up a new charge, the judge could violate him on the probation and put whatever sentence he had initially had into effect. He would also be sentenced on the new charge. I can't tell you how much time he would get.
