You don't provide enough information. Arkansas sentencing laws are complex. Was he charged as a habitual offender? What was the crime of conviction? How many days jail credit was he given on the sentencing order? Were the sentences run concurrent? Was he sentenced to ADC or ACC? A lot goes into a sentences computation. I've attached some info about how sentences are computed. Have you asked his attorney? They will know the answers to a lot of these questions that will help you figure it out.

It sounds like he's been given three sentences and he's serving them concurrently and will be out in four years and four months. and with good behaviour he should be out in three years four months. At lease that's how i understood it.
