Re: Drug posesion

Possession of less that five (5) pounds of marijuana puts that individual in the category of a State Jail Felony.

The punishment for the degree of Felony is anywhere from 180 days up to 2 years in a state jail facility and a fine up to $10,000.

If the individual has no prior felony convictions he is automatically eligible for probation.

Sincerely,

Erick Platten
