Sometimes, when sentencing someone to prison for a number of crimes, the judge will require that, rather than serve the terms of the sentences for each crime one after another, they are served in parallel - together. Thus, if you are sentenced to 5 months for crime A and 10 months for crime B, then you will serve 10 months: the first five will be in respect of both crimes and the second for only B.
