Aggravated Robbery is a first degree felony. According to the Texas Penal Code,
Sec. 12.32. FIRST DEGREE FELONY PUNISHMENT.
(a) An individual adjudged guilty of a felony of the first degree shall be punished by imprisonment in the institutional division for life or for any term of not more than 99 years or less than 5 years.
(b) In addition to imprisonment, an individual adjudged guilty of a felony of the first degree may be punished by a fine not to exceed $10,000.
The fact that there are 2 counts against them could mean more time; however if this is a first offense that will help.
