Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

If a case is reopened...
I spoke with a person who will be taking over as head states attorney in the town that I got into trouble in. After looking at my paperwork, and determining that there was no proof that I had stolen anything, and that there was no valid evidence of cheating, he said that when he takes office, that he will request to have my case reopened. What should I expect if the judge agrees to reopen my case? I took a plea bargain at the advice of my public defender. He would have had to verify records of inventory and journals over the course of 7-10 years, and I guess he didn't want to do it. However, those records would have proven that the loss and prevention manager was allowing/committing inventory fraud over the course of that period of time. If the judge reopens my case, what can I expect?

If the judge reopens the case, the prosecutor can agree that the charges should never have occurred, and they can be dismissed.
