Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

Would he be able to have case dismissed/dropped? Could he get released with no probation, or have it started where it was left off before imprisoned?

My boyfriend is on probation for 3rd offensive driving susp license (felony). He only had few months left when he was chrged with violation probation FL statute 332.34 2c (No Bond), aggravated assault FL statute 784.02 1a (Bond), and weapon offensive missile shoot/throwing FL statute 790.19( Bond). The "victim" is on parole for drug charges, and other than his word (hearsay) there is no evidence. The victim also has asked for money to drop charges (blackmail). Which we have recorded calls where he knew he was being recorded (calls from other party in jail) . He was offered 4-5 years of probation. Wondering if case can be dropped/dismissed, and can he get out with no probation at all, or to just finish off previous sentence. Maybe even if he could get early termed?

All options you mentioned are possible. It depends on the judge, the defense attorney, the prosecutor, the violation, and most importantly, your boyfriend. Too many variables to give a good answer. Have him talk to his attorney about his options. Good luck.
