Yes. CPCS 7 is a class A misdemeanor. I am a former federal and State prosecutor and now handle criminal defense so feel free to check out my web site and contact me if you wish to retain counsel.
You are charged with misdemeanors and if you can afford one ,you should retain a competent criminal defense attorney. You may have defenses which might result in dismissal, acquital, or at worst a good plea-bargain. I handle matters such as yours on a regular basis, so contact my office @7188340087 for a phone consultation.
You should absolutely have a lawyer, as possession In the seventh degree is a class A misdemeanor punishable by up to one year jail. Our office regularly handles drug cases, if interested in hiring an attorney contact us at 212-405-2234
