What is the difference between possession and possession with intent to sell?
If law enforcement finds any illegal drugs or controlled substances on your person, in your vehicle, or in your place of residence, they may charge you with drug possession. This is usually considered a misdemeanor, meaning that, if convicted, you could spend up to one year in jail and pay a fine of up to $1,000. However, many prosecutors will try to elevate the possession charge to possession with intent to sell, which becomes a felony. If convicted, you could spend two to four years in prison, pay a fine of up to $20,000, and experience long-term restrictions on employment and housing opportunities.
What is a controlled substance?
A controlled substance is any narcotic governed by law. For instance, cocaine, methamphetamine, heroin, LSD, and PCP are all controlled substances under California (and federal) law.
What is a misdemeanor?
A misdemeanor is a “lesser” criminal offense. Misdemeanors are usually punished less severely than felonies, but they still carry consequences nonetheless. For instance, offenses such as reckless driving, drug possession (in small amounts), most DUIs, simple assault, and trespassing are all considered misdemeanors.
What is a felony?
A felony is any crime that carries a possible sentence of imprisonment for more than one year. Felonies are considered to be more severe than misdemeanors, as they usually involve a greater amount of violence, a larger quantity of drugs, or other circumstances that endanger others.
What do I do if I'm arrested for a DUI?
First of all, try to remain calm. As soon as you are able to do so, contact a trusted DUI defense attorney who can help you understand your options. There are many legal strategies for addressing DUI charges, especially examining the circumstances of your arrest to determine if your rights were violated at any point or if the tests used to measure your blood-alcohol content (BAC) may have produced inaccurate or false results.
