What is the maxium time or sentence that is given for 2nd degree murder?

Your question of "What is the minimum sentence for murder?" leaves a lot of unanswered details. Murder involves one person involved in the death of another. The first question to be asked is, "What type of murder?" Murder varies from self defense, to involuntary manslaughter, to voluntary manslaughter, to second degree murder, to first degree murder. Generally, there is no sentence if the jury decides it was self defense. First degree murder involves premeditated murder, murder of a law officer, or murder committed during a felony. The first thing the jury decides is guilt or innocence or self defense. Then the jury decides what kind of murder. In this state the minimums for the amount of prison time are 0 for involuntary manslaughter, 0 for voluntary manslaughter, 10 for second degree murder, and 25 for first degree murder. That does not include time spent under court ordered supervision.
