It sounds like the probation department is recommending probation, not prison. As a condition of probation, the judge could order him to serve up to a year in jail. There is also a possibility that the judge could disagree with the probation report and send him to prison, anyway.
As I said in a response to your previous post, your boyfriend's lawyer is in a much better position to answer questions about his case.
