Trafficking Marijuana A Defense You Can Trust

Atlanta Marijuana Trafficking Defense Lawyer

The Penalties for Trafficking Marijuana in Georgia

The penalties imposed for marijuana trafficking in this state can only be described as extreme. If you are accused of having between 1 ounce and 10 pounds of marijuana (whether dried or plants) you can be charged with possession with intent. This is a felony offense, with penalties of up to 10 years in state prison in a conviction. If you are accused of having more than 10 pounds of marijuana under your control, there is the potential of up to 30 years in state prison, and a $100,000 fine.

For 2,000–10,000 pounds, the fines are increased to $250,000, and above 10,000 pounds, you will owe $1,000,000 in fines. If you are caught with marijuana within 1,000 feet of a place where children congregate, such as a park or school, you can be charged with a felony that is punishable by up to 40 years in state prison and a fine of $40,000. That being said, you should not hesitate to get in touch with an experienced criminal defense attorney if you have been arrested for marijuana trafficking.
