    Default Re: Jail Time and Suspended License for First Offense, for Half a Joint in Ohio

    Man that judge is ridiculous sentencing a 1st time offender to jail for a small amount of weed,I read in a few places that in ohio a drug conviction can effect your license and even getting a firearm even though most of the time the penalty is minor. Hopefully a lawyer can work out something with your license. In new york certain minor offenses are consider non criminal violations but people can be put in to jail for up to 15 days. They rarely are but exceptions can happen.

    It goes to show you how important a lawyer is even for minor crimes,you just never how a judge or a da is. Run in to a strict one and you can be very surprised with the result and effects a conviction has on you . Good luck.
