Judge Elizabeth Pollard Hines of Ann Arbor's 15th District Court granted the request.

Robinson arrived late for the hearing, and did not appear before the judge.

The sophomore from Canton, Ohio, participated throughout Michigan's spring camp and is considered a favorite to start at receiver next year

Robinson is one of two projected starters who currently is facing malicious destruction of property charges. Defensive tackle Will Campbell faces one felony and one misdemeanor count after allegedly damaging a car by sliding across the top of it.

The status of Robinson and Campbell with the Wolverines has not changed.
