Legal Question in Criminal Law in New York

These are all serious charges, and your friend is lucky to not be charge federally. Any sort of drug possession at a border generally is charged federally, depending on the alleged amount of narcotic your friend could have been facing stiff mandatory minimum jail sentences.

That fact that your friend is charged at the state level does not preempt federal charges however.

It is extremely important to have a good attorney in a situation such as this, if you are attempting to find your friend an attorney contact us to further discuss this case at 212-405-2234. We handle many such cases and are on record as having handled the biggest drug bust in the history of Westchester County.

I look forward to hearing from you and seeing if we can help your friend.
