    We would need to know what the drug was. You can usually reduce the intent.

    The fact it's less then 200 grams help you somewhat b.c it's a 2nd degree felony instead of a 1st degree. Am not sure how update that chart is. Hopefully with a good lawyer and since it's your 1st offense,they can knock the sale down to possession and maybe lower the amount.
