Penalty for Possession and Selling a Controlled Substance

[cyjeff]

You didn't give the charges or his previous record.

2 A's and 3 B's, though, will usually result in some jail time.

He was caught selling to an undercover cop

" Possesion and Sale of a controlled substance"

He was never arrested prior.

If found guitly at trail or after the plea bargain. Those are high level felonies and such a high bail amount is a bad sign,he needs an excellent lawyer. Some type of jail or prision time is likely,how much all depends.

My question, who is the mad man who put up that much bail? It isn't like there is any chance he will be found not guilty. Better to start doing the time now.

Unless there is a plea and some of the charges are dropped, I would say he is going to prison even if it is a first offense. Maybe a good attorney could get his probation, but I would be very surprised if that would happen.

Thanks for the reply.

The case may drag out,a lot all depends. The court process has many steps and delays. Good luck. It's important to research for a good lawyer,ask around,etc. It's common sense and all but go to court look presentable and follow the lawyer advice. These can make a Hugh difference.
your welcome.
