    Default 1st Offense 5th Deg. Possession of Methamphetamines - Possible Charges

    My question involves criminal law for the state of: Minnesota

    I'm 20 yrs. old and have a completely clean record - no traffic violations or anything ever. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time and was involved in a raid. I had 4 pills of ecstasy in my pocket. I'm being charged with 5th deg. possession of methamphetamines. Since then I've obviously stopped doing that nonsense. My questions are:

    1.) Is this considered a felony drug charge?

    2.) What are the possible charges and/or fines I might receive? Could I really serve jail time and if so how much?

    3.) What can I do to possibly help lower the charge? A non-court ordered treatment program perhaps?

    I'm desperate and can not afford an attorney; any legal advice at this point would be greatly appreciated!!! Thank you!!!!!

    Check whether your State offers some form or pre-trial intervention program. Mere Simple Possession usually qualifies in NJ.

    Go to you State's Judiciary Website and look around.

    BTW: Don't worry about jail time.
