Possession of cocaine is a third degree offense. A third degree offense carries a penalty of up to five years in state prison. There is no conditional discharge for this. You can apply for the Pre-Trial Intervention program. There may be a basis for moving to suppress the evidence on the grounds that you weren't read your rights, but I would have to see the police report before I could make a definite decision about this. I am an attorney who has handled many cases similar to yours in various courts throughout New Jersey in the past. Please contact me to discuss your case in more detail. I never charge for simply talking to a person about their case. Thank you.

Th fact that you were not read your miranda rights could be very helpful... Witht the right attorney it could easliy get you a dismissal, or at the very least the right amount of leverage to ensure that you get the conditional discharge you're seeking...

Re: 2c:35-10c
I wouldn't hang my hat on the miranda issue. You are looking at least one (if not more) felonies so you can't get a conditional discharge. I suggest you focus on getting a good attorney and let him or her decide how best to handle the case and the legal issues.
