In sentencing, the term 'Consecutively' means

• A. At the same time
• B. One after another in order
• C. Before required, but after an earlier discharge
• D. Intermittently

Answer: (B)

Consecutively means the sentences run one after another in sequence. Each sentence is served after the previous one finishes, so the total time is the sum of all terms. This is different from a concurrent sentence, where all terms run at the same time. The other options don’t fit because they describe scenarios not aligned with sequential serving: at the same time would be concurrent, before required after an earlier discharge doesn’t define consecutive timing, and intermittently implies gaps between terms. So, one after another in order is the correct interpretation.
