Drug Possession 2017.

So, let’s get an update on what constitutes drug possession.  Our friends in Nevada say marijuana is now free to purchase and use within your home.  What about us here in the Big Bear State?  California state laws include two diverse categories for crimes of drug possession.  They are simple possession and possession with the intent to sell.

We are taking a step in the direction of marijuana.  The California Health and Safety Code now separates offenses related to controlled substances.  There are “dangerous drugs” and there is weed.  There are specific offenses related to methamphetamine as well.  If the prosecutor feels that someone had the intent to sell their stash that’s a whole new ball of wax!

Drug possession and intent to sell are very slippery slopes.  You need an experienced, aggressive San Jose drug defense attorney to represent you in any California criminal court.  Attorney William Chestnut has devoted the last 40 years of his life to defending people accused of crimes in our state.  Please call him today at (408) 298-6990.

Your Past May Also be Your Future.

It sounds like some cryptic old Chinese proverb.  In this day and age of access to almost everything what you or a loved one has done in the past WILL probably come back to haunt you in the future.  When you apply for a job the prospective employer will do a Google search on you.  Count on it!

If you or someone you care about has been convicted of a crime it is imperative that damage control be done.  Believe it or not, the majority of misdemeanors AND felonies may be cleared in court.  I’m not sure that you knew about the felonies part.  Even serious convictions may be ameliorated by Certificates of Rehabilitation.

One awful mistake should not hamstring you for the rest of your life.  There is an attorney who has been dealing with these matters in California for four decades.  He is William Chestnut…a San Jose rehabilitation lawyer.  If you don’t know him yet, look him up under www.williamchestnutlaw.com/rehabilitation.  Then call his cell phone at (408) 298-6990.
