Admission to sale of marijuna in 1973

Can a CA individual be charged in 2006 for an admission of the sale of marijuna in NY (1973), if there had never been any complaint, legal or otherwise?

If you're saying you have a record showing in CA from a NY conviction, that's normal; it can probably be charged as a Strike, which is what I assume you are trying to say. If you're saying you are being charged in CA for a crime committed in NY years ago, then I need a lot more facts to know what is going on. Contact if you want legal representation in this, if it is in Southern California courts.

I don't understand your question. A 1973 conviction for the sale of marijuna might be used against your, but just an accusation of the possession would not be used against you. You should discuss this matter with an attorney.
