Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Essentially I'm being charged with Felony charge 11359 and 11360, Possession of Marijuana for Sale and Sale or Transport of Marijuana. My court date is in 20 days. I was in my friends car who also has his 215 and we both claimed ownership of the hash and bud, but he is only being charged with 11360. We also had a scale with us and the hash was in multiple containers. We had about a QP of hash and less than an ounce of bud between the two of us. I live in California and have my 215 medical recommendation. I'm trying to get a lawyer somehow but I'm desperately poor. What's my best course of action, how should I plea? Also, whats the worst case scenario for my sentence?

You would apply for a public defender at the arraignment, the first court appearance. Your attorney is the only who can advise you, based on all the information & discovery. Good luck!
