You need to get an attorney ASAP. 20 pills of Xanax is is a trafficking amount and you could be facing a minimum mandatory sentence of at least three years in prison.

If you are in the Central Florida area give me a call.

This is a serious charge and you should retain an attorney to represent you. Based on the quantity of pills, you may be charged not only with possession but with trafficing which could result in a lengthy jail time if convicted.
