Depends on where you are. Oregon... My friend got a 500 dollar fine for having 1/4. Misdemenor Posession. California, I got busted with a joint. They gave me diversion for 150 bucks (first offender) which consisted of a propoganda video tape and booklet that I had to fill out and return. The last question in the booklet was "Do you plan on using marijuana again?" HAHAH The whole thing was a joke.
