Re: possesion
Your question does not tell us if you were arrested and charged with a crime. If so, exactly what were you charged with? You might have been charged with violating a municipal ordinance, a county ordinance or a state statute. The answer to your question will depend upon the specific facts of your case. In any event, you should consult with and hire a local attorney in the geographical area where this incident occured.
