Legal Question in Criminal Law in Arizona
I was recently arrested for possession of marijuana and paraphernalia. I had about 8grams with me and a scale. The officer was actually pretty easy going and i was not taken to jail. All i know is i will have a court day but I dont know what what this can lead too, will i get jail time?

In Maricopa County Arizona 8 grams and a scale will most likely be charged as possession of marijuana for sale and result in a prison offer. In other counties prison may not be required as the marijuana is below the threshold amount. If the charge is merely possession of marijuana for personal use as a first offender you will get probation statewide.
