Legal Question in Criminal Law in Texas
I have been charged with possession of marijuana over 4 ounces under 5 lbs . and possession of a controlled substance in Amarillo Texas. The lawyer initially tried to have case dismissed based on grounds that it was an illegal stop. the court has denied this motion and offered me a plea deal of 5 years deferred probation. What are my other options available? is there option for appeal and what are the repercussions if lost? full sentence vs. previously offered deal?

You have asked this on other sites. Your lawyer can best explain the chances of winning on appeal. You can plead and take the deal while reserving your right to appeal or you can go to trial (at which you are guaranteed nothing except that you CANNOT get deferred after a finding of guilt; you can get straight probation or prison).
