Florida will probably want to prosecute him for a violation of probation due to the arrest. It will help that charges were dropped but that doesn't necessarily mean the VOP will be dismissed. He may be extradited back to Florida. You should probably contact an attorney in Georgia to help expedite the possible dismissal of that charge and also an attorney in Florida in the area where he was originally placed on probation.
