Yes he was served a sentencing of 4years earlier today in court but the doctor may likely spend only 2years in a state prison, due to California's laws on involuntary manslaughter, i.e in California now any non-violent act of murder(felony) is only punishable by a 2year stint in a county cell not even prison.

The Jackson family however could not feel any satisfaction in the verdict, and were often quoted saying 4years is not enough.
