California Drug Possession

Drug possession in California can be charged as misdemeanors or felonies.

You could be facing serious prison time because California leads the nation in drug offense incarceration.

Prosecutors can be extremely tough, so it is important to be represented by an attorney with experience with the Court Judges, District Attorneys and the procedures in your jurisdiction.

California Drug Possession Laws

The Federal government classifies drugs by “schedule”. This classification system is used to determine the seriousness of your offense and the potential sentence you may be facing.

Misdemeanors or Felonies Drugs

Misdemeanor drug offenses include such charges as possession of marijuana for personal use, being under the influence of a drug and paraphernalia charges.

Most drug charges in California that are felonies are schedule l, ll or lll controlled substances.

Some drugs like methamphetamines can be "wobbles" if not a transportation or sells charge.

A wobbler is a criminal charge that can be charged as either a misdemeanor or a felony.

If the felony charged is not negotiated to a misdemeanor the client may be facing prison time.
