My son was charged with felony possession of a controlled substance less than a gram (TX) ((?) if that's how they word it). However, it was a prescription drug, hydrocodone. He had one tablet in his pocket. He had visited the ER that Sunday where he obtained the RX, and was arrested for assault that Friday. Assault charges were dropped. (I posted previously with different questions)
My question is this; may I send a copy of the hospital papers, to include RX for the prescription, to the DA and request the charges be dismissed or dropped? We haven't received any court date as of this post and it's been a month. If that is not a possibility, do you recommend we obtain counsel?
Thank you.![]()
