Re: cocaine charges

Unless the drug you alleged possessed on multiple dates was marijuana, the various of possession charges are third degree offenses. The distribution/manufacturing charge is also a third degree offense. As a first offender you are eligible for probation, but the multiple offenses may make some jail time likely.

Call me if you like.
