Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida

v.o.p.

i was arrested and charged with possesion of cocaine and cannabis as well as drug paraphenilia... i took a deal to plead no contest and do two years of probation with five years in state prison over my head... recently i failed a drug test which is a violation of my probation... i requested for the test to be sent to a lab. By violating am I now definitely going to be sent to prison? it is my first violation and prior to violating i had a nervous break down which led to the reason for my violation... could i put myself in a rehab instead and if i did could they take me from the rehab and send me to prison

You need your attorney to present proof of all you say and advocate on your behalf to your probation officer, the State Attorney, and the sentencing judge. What county is this?
