    Default Marijuana Possession Charge

    Hello, I recently got my first possession of Marijuana charge. I was at my dorm at college and i ended up being caught with an ounce in a half. The police officer only wrote me up for a misdemeanor.

    My first question is if the cop only wrote me for a misdemeanor can they change it to a Felony because i was caught with an 1 1/2 ounces?

    My next question is how do i use my 7411? Do I request it before I go to court or do I need to call someone and request it?

    Thx for the Help. I really need it.

    Default Re: Marijuana Possession Charge

    I doubt that the charges will be increased, but that's up to the prosecutor.

    7411 is a sentencing disposition, so typically you try to work it out with the prosecutor in court that the prosecutor will either recommend 7411 or won't object to it, and you petition the court for 7411 sentencing. (The judge decides your sentence.) You may wish to get help from a criminal defense lawyer, or court-appointed lawyer.
