Delivery Of Marijuana

Delivery Of Marijuana In Plano, Texas

Being charged with any drug crime in Texas can be an intimidating and confusing experience. Depending upon the quantity of marijuana attributed to your marijuana delivery charge, it’s possible that you are facing a felony. This could mean jail or prison time and possibly thousands of dollars in fines. With drug cases especially, it’s important that you seek legal counsel as soon as possible in order to avoid the possibility of being bullied or coerced into giving a confession or testimony by pushy prosecutors. At the Zendeh Del Law Firm, PLLC, attorney Jason Zendeh Del strives to utilize every possible strategy to mount an aggressive defense. Some potential strategy options include: an assessment of whether the items seized were actually illegal drugs, whether the drugs were actually “possessed” by the accused, and a review of the whether or not the law enforcement’s search and seizure process was legal.

What Are The Penalties For The Delivery Of Marijuana?

Similar to many other drug crimes, the severity of the penalty varies based on the quantity of marijuana found, whether you received payment for the marijuana, and if you were charged with dealing drugs in close proximity to a school, school bus, youth center, public swimming pool, etc.
