How much time will a juvenile get for simple assault and 2 possession charge?
Robbery is a felony - simple assault is a misdemeanor. If both charges arose from the same incident the prosecutor MAY combine the charges and hit you with the felony offense and 'enhance' it to account for the lesser offense. You are probably looking at a felony charge. Since no information is given about the offense, or your a past criminal record, it is impossible to estimate.

Can you drop charges for aggravated assault and battery?
Aggravated Assault occurs when the assault involves the assailant causing great bodily harm. However, many states define great bodily harm differently. For instance, the state of Illinois defines it as any action that results in the following: Loss of consciousness, temporary or permanent loss of eyesight, broken bones and/or teeth, multiple contusions, multiple lacerations, or any single laceration that requires 8 or more stitches. An aggravated assault cant be deemed to be a "simple assault" or plain "assault" if it is determined that there was in actuality no injury caused to the victim. The only other possible way is if a prosecutor offered a plea to the defendant that an admittance of guilt will only result in a simple assault charge.
