For a felony drug case, what are my options besides first offenders drug probation and going to trial?
Question Details: They have a CS who stated I completed an illegal transaction. When the police came to arrest me they found 100 grams of canibus in my roommate's room but I am the only name on the lease.
Your options depends on your particular state. For first offenders, there may be certain drug statues that will allow you to complete a term of probation without having the conviction appear on your criminal record. 100 Grams is a lot of weight in terms of marijuana, so the prosecutor may take this into consideration when determining your plea options. Speak with a criminal defense attorney to find alternative sentencing options other than prison or a criminal conviction if you do not plan to fight this matter at trial.
