As a criminal defense attorney in Washington, D.C., I handle many cases involving drugs.
In the District, the law makes a very major distinction between personal possession and
possession with intent to distribute.
Under the law, anyone who has drugs that they intend to distribute will be charged with
a felony, with one exception:
If someone possesses marijuana in a quantity of one-half ounce or less and has not previously
been convicted of possession with intent to distribute, that person will be charged with
a misdemeanor, otherwise he'll be facing a felony charge.
Someone who has been arrested and charged with possession for personal use will be facing
a misdemeanor, and that is true whether they have marijuana, ***, ***, and other
drugs, the one exception being ***.
Under the law in the District of Columbia, personal possession of liquid *** is still
a felony charge.
The legislature has determined that the drug is so dangerous that even personal possession
of liquid *** is a felony.
Now if you or someone you know is facing drug charges, it's important that you contact an
attorney as soon as you can so the attorney can quickly analyze the facts of your case
and defend you against these charges.
Please give me a call so we can discuss how I can help you with your case.
