You are charged with possession of less than 50 grams of marijuana. While this offense includes mandatory fines, possible probation, and potential loss of driving privileges, if it is a first offense you would normally qualify for a diversion program which would keep you from having a conviction (although the probation and mandatory penalties would still apply).

It is also possible that you may have a defense to this matter, by way of a motion to suppress physical evidence. If you are successful with the motion, the evidence cannot be used against you. This cannot be determined without examination of the police reports.

In any event, you should be represented by an attorney. You can reach my office at 732-544-1460.
