Well if charges were dropped, he should no longer be in jail. Typically if charges have not been dropped than he should be elgible for bond within a day and have a court date set. |

The law is, up to 72 hours before arraignment. If the charges were dropped, then make sure there's not something else going on, like fines or other charges, or whatever. |

If charges were dropped he should probably be out. |

They can hold you 48 hrs before they Arraign you, be it live or video arraignment. After that, there is no "set" time. The Judge will set a court date, but it can be put off for many different reasons by either party. |

You ask, I answer

simple battery against you or someone else? either way, sounds like he has a temper, so I'd get out of that relationship. if the charges were dropped, then he should be out of there. or is he getting probation? if he's still getting probation, he'll need a court date. let him sit. he needs to learn. |

they can hold him in jail as long as they want to. sometimes people be in jail up to a year before getting a court date. all depends on what the people want to do with him and the crime that is commited! |

They can do anything they want too, unless of course you have as much money as the beach has grains of sand. Ask O.J. He can tell you! |
