Legal Question in Criminal Law in Virginia
Possession of marijuana
I was pulled over for out taillights then the police officer said he smelled marijuana and searched the vehicle. He found a small amount of marijuana in a bag other empty bags and a scale.
I wanted to know if the charge would be dropped since it is my first, or would i have to take any drug tests or counceling tests?
Will they drug test me when i go to court?
on the ticket it says law section 18.7.250.1 Possession of marijuana

Re: Possession of marijuana
No, the possession charge will not be dropped merely because it's your first offense, but you will be given the opportunity as a first time offender to receive the most lenient disposition
possible for this particular charge conditioned upon your full cooperation with the process.
