there's not enough information to give you an accurate answer, but what happens will most likely depend on the judge, the jurisdiction where he was sentenced, his past criminal history, if any, and the reason he didn't report for 2 months. The judge could sentence him to time served or longer and reinstate his probation, or (s)he could revoke probation and re-sentence him to the jail sentence on the original charges. He should contact his prior attorney or hire a new attorney to help him with this new problem.
