Legal Question in Criminal Law in Louisiana
Louisiana Multiple Misdemeanor
I have a friend recently arrested for 3
misdemeanors (possesion of nitrous
oxide, paraphernalia [balloons], and a
marijuana ''roach''). It was a first
offense and the stuff had been left in
the car by a coworker. Is it likely my
friend will go to prison? The max
sentence is $500 and/or 6 months--if
he receives jail time, is it likely he will
a 1 1/2 in jail? He is an older
gentleman (in his 50's) and still has
teenaged dependent children (though
he is separated from his wife and the
children do not currently live with
him.
