Drug Offenses PDF Print E-mail
Drugs such as Meth-amphetamine, Marijuana, Heroin, Crack-Cocaine, Cocaine, Oxycodone, Valium, etc., are all examples of “controlled substances.” Many prescribed medications are considered controlled substances and are illegal to possesses, use or transport without a prescription. Often times, a person charged with possessing or using drugs will qualify for “Diversion” which means he or she can avoid jail and get the case dismissed after completing a short class. Prop-36 is another jail-alternative treatment program that many drug offenders may qualify for. Also, there are cases where a motion can be filed, such as a motion to suppress evidence that was obtained in violation of the Defendant’s constitutional rights. Often times, if such a motion is granted, the case is dismissed. It is important that any person charged or arrested for a drug offense contact an attorney immediately to determine what is the best course of action.
