Answer

Hello and thanks so much for choosing this forum to pose your important legal question. I will do my best to give you some honest and accurate guidance.

1. Exactly what charge, if any, to be brought against him rests with the discretion of the local prosecutor.
2. That being said, at his age if he is convicted what will very likely happen is his probation would be revoked.
3. If that happens, he will be committed to a juvenile facility to serve time not only for the original offense that landed him on probation but for the new assault charge as well.
4. You would be very well advised to consult a licensed attorney in your state with juvenile law/criminal defense experience.
