    Default First offense Minor Possession charge

    Two weeks ago I was going to a hockey game with a buddy and we made a wrong turn. We ended up at a military front gate and the gaurd had smelled the marijuana we had smoked 5 mins earlier. We were NOT trying to go into the military base, we were trying to turn around. I have the tickets still for the game we were supposed to go to with the game time starting 2 mins after my ticket was written up. So I also want to make sure I dont get hit with some Intent to bring onto a Military Facility or something in that nature.

    We were told the vehicle would be searched and we gave up the mj before they had to go and look for it. I had less than a 1.5 grams, if that. This is my first offense with a clean record.

    I've looked online and found the first offenses are minor traffic violations with a maximum fine of $100. But my roommate said he got a minor possession for a roach and got fined $395 dollars. Is the ultimate decision on the fine up to the Judge or does he have to go by the written law?

    Any advice would be appreciated!!

    Thanks for the time!

    Default Possession Charge

    I have no idea what the charge is, as you did not say, so I cannot guess at the penalty. Since you were able to find the offense online, why not post a link to what you found?
