Qué pasa si llego a mi límite?


Explanation:
También he oído un anuncio de una goma de mascar MAX AIR, en donde se usa MAX OUT como llegar al límite (el propio) y más allá. Tal vez te sirva, es neutro, por si acaso lo que quiere decir es que qué pasa si pierde el control pues llega a su límite (hablando de la libertad bajo palabra). bueno, es una opción

pena máxima/sentencia completa (ver explicación)


Explanation:
When the inmate is given parole, it means he/she is getting out before the end of his prison term under the terms and conditions of parole, but but if he/she violates any of the terms and conditions of his parole the judge can, and most likely will, "max him/her out" and he/she will have to serve the full prison term of of his original sentence.
Este término se emplea como si fuera un verbo y significa "dar el término maximo"
