Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia

My fiance' just recently got a ticket for possession of marijuana. He's on papers with about 20 years over his head. This is a violation of his probation and recently got out of jail in April. He has a stable job and is a great father to his 2 kids. He hasn't seen his daughter in the past 2 months because her mom has kept her away. He's a great person in and out and I would hate to see him in this situation again. We plan on getting married next year, but this situation has put a damper on our lives right now. Please help us understand what the worst case scenario that is before us. We are praying for a miracle. Is there anyway that he can get out of the violation?

Probably not, once he's convicted of this new criminal offense, but

you'd be well advised (in my opinion) to check with his attorney whom hopefully he has by now to represent him.
