    Default First Offense For Marijuana

    Yea i was arrested for having possession of marijuana in my truck, the police towed the truck but did not sieze it for it being on the side of the road. The marijuana was A very small amount, im not sure how much because it was not my stuff but it was left in the truck so it is considerd mine. And I was not driving the and even know i smoke marijuana i was not driving the vehicle at the time it was being towed. This is my first drug releated charge it happend in van buren township of michigan and i just want to know if I take it to court what type of plea bargin if any will be offerd and what type of punishments is the judge most likely to give me.


    Oh and i was arrested on my 18th birthday

    As it's a first offense, you would normally want to try to get sentenced under MCL 333.7411 (What lawyers call "Seventy-Four - Eleven" sentencing). That provides for a delayed sentence for a first time drug possession charge.

    Read up on your Miranda Rights. Probably not.
