How long can you be held for probable cause?

Asked Jul 13, 2012, 06:18 PM — 14 Answers
About two months ago, my husband was arrested on two counts of armed robbery! He was going to see a friend and he walked in on his friend robbing someone. He went to court Tuesday, and the judge told him that he is holding him only because there is probable cause! It's been two months and they have no evidence.

Has he been charged? Was he allowed bail?

He hasn't been indicted yet but he was still charged with armed robbery. The judge says that it's a weak case and all the evidence is pointing towards the other guy.

He will be held until he either comes up with bail or the case is tried. Does he have an attorney?

The prosecutor is not letting up the judge has no choice. He's not being "held for probable cause". He was charged with a crime, arraigned and give n bail.

He does have a lawyer! His lawyer thinks that he can get him off as a juvenile... But since he didnt have a weapon or threaten anyone in that nature, I was hoping that the judge could dismiss it! The witnesses said that he wasnt involved and that he ran when he saw the gun

That's not a juvenile. Not close.
