He isn't going to be charged with failure to pay the same arrears, he will
be charged with failure to pay the arrears that accured while he was in jail
or afterwords. Violation of parole or probation have noting whatsoever to do
with double Jeopardy.

Oh, it's true. It's called double or former jeopardy. Look it up in
your Constitution.

Not true. If he continues to be unable to pay, he will be jailed again.
Also, because probation or parole are a part of any conviction, he could
receive even more time.

The good news is when he's out of prison he can't be charged or tried
again for not paying those arrearages.
