What to do if my son in the Army has to do Community Service and take anger management classes but due to his schedule and his own procrastination, he might not finish all on time?

There was no arrest and no probation. Can he ask the court for an extension and, if so, who should he ask?

Given what you have written about I suggest that you son should consult with a criminal defense attorney to file a petition with the court to extend the time period for him to complete the community service and anger management classes he needs to do. In the meantime he should proceed to complete what he is required to do as soon as possible.
