Legal Question in Criminal Law in California

Two people charged for same drug arrest

The local drug inforcement raided our apartment and found 1.1 grams of meth. My boyfriend told them it was his that night and also on stand during trial. The jury found us both guilty of possesion and possesion for sale of the same 1.1 grams.We have no piors and they also went two days over on the prelim and one week over on the trial. We did not waive any time. A writ for dismissal of time was not granted because it showed no predjuice. Is this legal?
