As for distribution charges, it's hearsay. Turn the tables on your friend and tell them he's just trying to save his ass, you don't sell, you smoke. Make that clear.
...Agreeable don't say nothing about I PLEA THA 5TH.., LIe.. okay but don't catch yourself up in a lie as this will have greater consequences if found you are lyin., Yea make sure they know you smoke thats all I would even go as far to say it was my friend who turned be on to smokin...But I am not a rat so I take my action and consequences as a man. You decide what matters more to you pushin your actions onto sum1 else or havin the dignity and that shit to man up for your actions.

I had one of these lawyers, she charged me 56 dollars for a case regarding two felonies. Besides, you can even talk to her, and then if you don't like her, find a 'real' lawyer. Everything is confidential when you speak to her. You have the choice.
When it comes to school and drugs/gun/ect. they do not play they wanna get theses kinda matters taken care of a soon as they can. And wanna make sure the school is a safe place to learn at.... State appointed lawyers= PD... Public Defender...= penitentiary Deliver... Good for certain cases... Drug sales weapon charges an shit not good to go with them, But better than going with nothin as theses PD's owe and do favors for each other and shit. They sometime swap & swap you give us this case and we give you the other1 to help each other get higher up an shit like dat so becareful.

If I had to estimate the result of this, I'd say a few Correctional Behavior Classes, maybe 20-40 hours of community service, and although I doubt it, at the worst, probation. They'll make you write a few essays, and your school might put you on supervision.
Hmm Misdemeanors usually up to like $10,000 max fine with 3 year max jail time. As this is more likely a petty misdemeanor you won't get jail time. Only reason they gave you misdemeanor is you was at school so don't get to worried. Look forward to some probation..community service or fine either 1....and watch your school as they might take it up wit school board to try an expel/kick out of the district...and don't be surprised if you are ordered to complete drug control/cleansing classes

Well I think most all it is summed up what will happen as of this post and all previously.
Oh yeah, and, that case that I got charged 56 bucks, I got off with 6 months probation.
And every situation is diffrent so there might be a little give or take here. $56... Hmm seems fishy to me....."I've been arrested four times for multiple offenses, ranging from citations to felonies"..... Where I am from if that was true either your lying or your snitchin. 17 multiple arrest and close to adult... Judge we have decide to charge him as an adult.But hey that is my opine I know tha streets an how tha system works but w/e. Good luck to ya kid remember don't make same mistake twice... I would not rat on my friend but i would give him a ass kickin he would not soon 4get... But My SIG says it all.:jointsmile:

I have to disagree with you here. All lawyers are not created equally. If he or his parents have the money, I would suggest buying a decent lawyer. They don't get paid hardly anything despite the time and money they spent on law school. There are basically two reasons someone would do that job.
1. They aren't a good enough lawyer to open their own practice or join a major law firm.
2. They simply enjoy giving back to the less fortunate and are very qualified.
More than likely a person ends up with option one. Also, attorneys appointed by the state are extremely overworked, he/she may not be able to give enough attention to his case.
Got caught with weed at school and school called the Police! What to do?
bringing a bag to school is ok once in a while, but a smelly pipe?? why??
if you ever do that again, KEEP IT ON YOUR BODY so you have total control. if you get called to the office, ditch it in the hallway on the way there, but never, ever leave it in an area where you cant see it

Bringing a bag to school is *NEVER* ok, neither is bringing a pipe, or papers or anything else that is related to *ANY* illicit activities.
Goes back to the prime directive..... Never put yourself in a position where somebody has to *DO* something about it.

i aint know about the bottom part, but if i was an adult, i wouldnt go wit a public defender, but i heard wit juveniles they put in more effort, and they proved that wit me.

whats a petty misdemeanor? but yea since hes a juvenile he wont get juvy time or a fine or nothin. pretty much he catches a break since hes young.
And every situation is diffrent so there might be a little give or take here. $56... Hmm seems fishy to me....."I've been arrested four times for multiple offenses, ranging from citations to felonies".....

naw, the felonies were the last crimes i caught and i had a 'clean' record before that because i'd only been charged, never convicted. and before that it was a misdemeanor battery and a loitering citation. petty shit. but yea, if you got a rap sheet and you catch a felony theyl take you to county even if yu a minor. real talk alot of people dont know how crooked these cops can act. and i dont even need to get into rattin on s cuz the whole reason i caught my felonies was for not rattin. basically if i could catch a felony wit a clean record and get off on probation he shouldnt have trouble wit a misdemeanor.

im not sayin they are all created equally, but there is a general consensus that pds are all bad reps. im tellin this dude to at least see what the pd has to offer and put on the table, and then you can still choose a different person. but i may have just ended up wit #2, so i dont kno.

Stop hating on the guy.
Sure, he is underage, and yes, it is incredibly stupid to take bud to school, but I'd be hypocrite if I acted like I wasn't doing the exact same thing at his age.
Good luck man
