Q: What will happen?
So i was alrady parked and the car was off. I had a gram or lessof marijuana on me. I was sitting in the drivers and i was putting the marijuana in my cigarette pack because i had no baggy. Then a cop taps on my door and ask what i was doing. Of course i lied said gettig a cigarette from my pack. And he said he thought i was doing herion from the angle i was at when i was putting the marijuana in my pack. Then later he asked to see the pack and of course saw the weed. And then he asked to get out of the car and he searched me and the car while we wait for another officer to come. Then i gave them my info basically my address and my name and they let me go. Plus i had only a permit. And they asked me to be an informer which im not a rat i wont do it. And i will get a letter in the mail for my court date. Also they did not give me a citation.
A:
You'll probably get a notice to appear in Philadelphia Municipal Court on charges of possession of a small amount of marijuana. That's an ungraded misdemeanor. You probably won't be charged with DUI if they didn't ask you to perform sobriety tests or request to take a blood or breath test.
If and when you get that notice, I'd be happen to discuss your case with you.
