T.I.is finally getting a break -- TMZ has learned the L.A. County DistrictAttorney has rejected the drug case stemming from his arrest last month... and we're told there may have been legal problems with the case.


As TMZ first reported, T.I. and his wife were busted back on September 1 for possession of a controlled substance.

Accordingto the D.A.'s Office, they are not going forward with charges because,in essence, he's already been sentenced to prison since the arrest wasa violation of his federal probation.

However, law enforcement sources tell TMZ, there were significant legal issues over probable cause which led to T.I.'s arrest.

Copsclaimed they smelled marijuana but no pot was ever booked intoevidence. And, we're told ...T.I. was pulled out of his $250,000Maybach immediately after he made the illegal U-turn and prior to anyregistration check.
