It's a small amount of marijuana. That and the drug paraphernalia and the fake license probably mean that you'll be held for court. I'll be happy to talk with you if you'd like. No charge for the phone call.

I think you need to talk to your parents about hiring private counsel as soon as possible. The penalties could be pretty bad, especially if you are hit with possession with intent and all the potential charges. Feel free to call or e-mail me directly to talk more about your options (confidentially, and free of charge, of course).

THINK! --- All that matters is what your ARE charged with - why waste time discussin what MAY happen. THEN worry and get an attorney. Get RID of any fake ID's!!! After 9-11, that is becoming a felony in most states. It is in NJ, and may be in PA by now also.
