Dohnal also ordered Vick to undergo drug therapy and mental health counseling.Vick pleaded guilty last month to federal conspiracy charges related to dogfighting.On Tuesday a Surry County grand jury indicted him on two state dogfighting charges.Vick's lawyers indicated they will fight the state charges on the grounds that he can't be convicted twice of the same crime. Each felony is punishable by up to five years in prison. Arraignments on the state charges are set for Oct. 3. The grand jury declined to indict the 27-year-old Vick and two co-defendants on eight additional counts of killing or causing to be killed a companion animal, felonies that would have exposed them to as many as 40 years in prison if convicted. Vick defense attorney Billy Martin said in a statement that the state counts concern "the same conduct covered by the federal indictment for which Mr. Vick has already accepted full responsibility."
