    Default Minor Caught With Drug Paraphernalia and Charged in Juvenile Court

    My question involves juvenile law in the State of: Connecticut

    I'm, being charged with drug paraphernalia in Connecticut and have court August 1st.

    Wondering what type of penalty I'm looking at, there is a lot of resin in the pipe and marijuana was smoked out of it.
    Also wondering what court will be like and how my case will go. Are they going to ask me a lot of questions? Will they want to know where I acquired the pipe because I'm a minor, etc?

    Thanks, hopefully you make me feel safer.

    EDIT: Thread should be "charged with drug paraphernalia" as the title. First offence.

    What will happen will depend upon your home, school, community and prior police record, as well as whether the court believes you have a drug problem. A juvenile court has broad discretion to fashion a remedy that suits the offender. If you can convince the court that this was a one-time event, never to reoccur, you may resolve the matter with a modest consequence - education classes, community service, a short term of supervision, and/or similar measures. The detailed facts matter.

    I have almost a 4.0 cumulative GPA for high school (incoming senior) have never been arrested or anything before. I'm more concerned with what is actually going to happen in the courtroom and the questions that will be asked.
