Re: Criminal Charges

The second charge is Violation of Controlled Substance Act. Because drug charges vary greatly, nobody can accurately answer your question. A competent attorney will need to know MUCH more about your case to advise you. I recommend that you immediately contact an experienced and aggressive criminal defense firm.

Re: Criminal Charges

VCSA = Violation of the Controlled Substances Act. This could be a misdemeanor felony depending on the type of drug, amount of drug, whether there was evidence sufficient to charge use, possession, delivery, possession with intent to deliver, etc. Also, whether you have a prior criminal record (and what the record is) will affect the charging decision by the prosecutor and what your sentence might be.

Aside from that, your undetailed message does not give us enough information to give you any more response.

Violation, Controlled Substances Act which makes you eligible for jail! rehab! fines! probation! community service! driver's license suspension!

Punishment depends on your age,prior record, demeanor, judge, prosecutor, and circumstances surrounding your arrest (e.g. how much did you take?)

If you intend to hold a good job, I'd get a lawyer.
