The best thing you can do for your boyfriend to get him private counsel. Without seeing the charges it's hard to comment on what kind of time he might be looking at. Sale can be treated as a felony. You really need to get him a private attorney.

The only help you can provide is to hire him an attorney. He faces potential prison time on the sales charge. If serious about doing so, feel free to contact me. If you can't afford private counsel, he'll apply to the Public Defender.
