the other charge was dismissed due to failure to corroberate evidence (i.e. no field testing to prove it was an illegal substance) but I wasnt even smoking it in public, it was just rolled and sitting on my lap
A person is guilty of criminal possession of marihuana in the fifth
degree when he knowingly and unlawfully possesses:
1. marihuana in a public place, as defined in section 240.00 of this
chapter, and such marihuana is burning or open to public view

Just having it in view makes the charge legit,maybe it can be throw out . If not an acd will dismiss and seal the case after 6 months or a year if u stay out of trouble. If not then a reduction like I mentioned before would be a good outcome.
