Legal Question in Criminal Law in Florida
Misdemeanor possesion of cannabis
I was pulled over for an expired tag and the officer found some cannabis (apx. 4 grams) in my vehicle. he had asked me if it was okay to look in my car and i said yes fearing a scene of dogs and such if i refused.he arrested me and let me drive away with a notice to appear.i guess my question is...is it common in these cases for the defendant to do time? I have never had a drug related charge.

It's not common most places, but it happens, and you should get a lawyer. A conviction results in 2 year driver's license suspension, even if you don't get jail time.
