is the house's owner held accountable, as well as the resident grower?
hate to open up a whole new thread for such a simple question but the relevent thread where i wanted to ask it was "closed."
OK.. hypothetical of course... my dad agrees to buy a country home... I live there and grow pounds... I somehow get arrested.. can he just say he didn't know anything about it and not face any consequences himself?

Well depends where you live but be sure that he will have a tight questionning and they will try to almost anything to make him talk to the point he ''spits it out". It all depends on how big is the grow, is it a rent or a co-buy, etc... I suggest you go to the library and find the laws about narcotis in you're country. Keep silent, safe and secure...

Don't give bad advice.

Yes if you somehow get arrested your dad will most likely face some consequences also. I get the impression you shouldn't be growing at home and perhaps that you probably shouldn't be on these forums (age).

ok.. no problem

No it doesn't depend on where you live. Federal law is federal law. The owner of the property will most likely take at least part of the blame. Of course things can be worked out with good lawyers; but it doesn't depend on where you live this is something you should anticipate regardless of where you make home.
Bad Advice.

Uhh.. he asked if he grew if the person who owned the property would get in trouble. Here you are almost advocating for the owner of the property to not talk. Guess what, if the owner withholds information and then he get's caught he'll be in way more sheit than otherwise.
Point being, you did not address his question at all and tried to encourage him to put other people at risk.
Bad advice.

It doesn't depend on how big the grow is. Trouble is trouble is trouble. 1 plant will still get you in trouble with the law.
In relation to his question... bad advice.

your impression is way off. I'm an adult. So you're saying that if a relative buys you a house... say my dad is very wealthy and decides to buy me a cabin in the woods for a christmas present, just a place to go fishing and hang out... and I grow, a sizable operation, nothing outrageous but a serious operation for sure... you're saying that my dad would get in trouble if I got caught? Why would the judge have a hard time believing he knew nothing about it?

I'm sure if your dad has the money to buy you your very own cabin in the woods as a christmas present.. just for you to get away, that you would probably be asking a lawyer for legal advice rather than asking a forum full of people who obviously have a bias towards cannabis.
If he bought you a house good for you (although he obviously didn't if the deed is not in your name)... if you're not below 18 years old.. then good for you, but the fact remains that regardless.... he will hold some responsibility as this is his property.
You would need a contractual agreement that free's him from all responsibilities of what happens in that house, but that is something for your Rich Dad, You and a Lawyer to figure out.

I'm not really inclined to call up some lawyer and tell him I'm thinking about growing cannabis, or lead him to believe I am. Why couldn't my dad buy a house for me with the deed in his name? And why would I need a "contractual agreement"? If I got arrested I would tell the judge my dad had no idea I was doing anything illegal. I thought maybe somebody in this forum would know how this works. Like I said, I don't really feel like asking anyone such a question without the beautiful anonymity I get in this forum.

Actually you can. It's perfectly legal to discuss this with a lawyer. There are lawyers who do this for free. In addition you would want to tell them you're the owner of a property (role reversal) and not that YOU are growing. Your discussions with a lawyer are confidential and cannot be discussed or submitted to court or law officials.

Well that's just the thing. If it's not in your name then legally it's not your house, now is it?

And you say you're an adult? You need something to free your father of responsibility of anything happening at the house. There are many risks involved in not doing so. I am not a lawyer so I am not giving you legal advice here but things that could happen could include but not limited to seizure of the property, your dad thrown in jail, and possibly share a lesser crime on his record. Just so you can grow your pot?

Well, I pretty much just told you how it works. I thought I spelled it out very clearly. No one on this forum can give you ACTUAL legal advice unless they are a lawyer. It is against forum policy.
