Penalties for Marijuana Drug Offense
Marijuana possession may be considered a felony or misdemeanor, depending on these factors:
- Weight
- Presence of paraphernalia
- Intended use
Any conviction, no matter how light, will affect your future. If convicted, the charge stays on your criminal record forever. This can affect your career, family and finances. If this one decision if handled incorrectly, the outcome can affect the rest of your life.
