    I am looking for the name of this movie
    I watched this movie when I was little so it had to come out in the late 70s or 80s, all I can remember about the movie is that a little boy believes in santa, and I believe santa gets arrested; the other part of the movie I remember, and I think its right after he breaks or gets out of jail, santa is in a hot air ballon with the little boy flying over the city.

    Kind of sounds like the Amazing Stories episode Santa '85, except in the end they are flying in his sleigh rather than a hot air balloon.

    I haven't seen this, so I'm not sure if it's what you are looking for, but it sounds like It Nearly Wasn't Christmas (1989) (TV). It's a girl rather than a boy though.
