You're entitled to basic disclosure and anything that may be exculpatory in nature. Including statements made by co-defendants. Your attorney needs to ask for everything.

You would need to inquire with each state you propose to operate in. Generally though, you can't give away controlled substances or alcohol.

I don't see why not. Depends on the misdemeanor, I would guess.
He said he had probable cause but they all say that and that he was allowed to search the vehicle. He found a bowl worth of marijuana and threatened me with a felony cause he told me since I'm a tribal member on tribal land it's a felony to have marijuana

It depends on the agencies. There are agencies that are cross-commissioned which means the “city” cop may also be a tribal cop as well.
This is my first offense and have never been pulled over prior. I was released after passing a sobriety test. Will my insurance be notified of the traffic violation before I have to show up for my court date and if the charges are dropped will my insurance still be notified? What are the chances my...

As a first time Offender you should be eligible for a marijuana education class and be allowed to have the drug charges eventually dismissed. As far as insurance there’s no way to know when and if A company will run a random check on you. I would recommend hiring an experienced criminal defense... View More
I was unable to move forward with business and now owner claims I still owe him for the remainder of the contract. Does he have any grounds to come after me or can I walk away?
answered on Feb 7, 2022
I agree with the advice already given about the importance of sitting down with a lawyer to review your agreement. The only additional point I would make is that current regulations governing licensed cannabis operations prohibit subletting. (Cal. Code Regs. Title 4, Section 15000.4; effective... View More

From the very limited info given, I must assume there was a Petition to revoke your probation. Once the State files a Petition to revoke your probation, the court can hold the hearing, allow a deal between the DA and the Defendant, or dismiss the petition and thus, dismiss the case.

I was pulled over going 90mph in a 70 zone. He smelled weed and told me he was going to search the car. I cooperated and set in his car while he & another officer searched. I had about an eighth of weed and a bong on my front passenger floor. I know I can be charged up to $1000 for each offense... View More

Yes, you need a lawyer. A lawyer can review the case and first make sure that you don't have a defense. Then they can help you get the best possible outcome. You can actually be charged $1,000 plus a 90% surcharge on all class B misdemeanors. It is unlikely that they will do that, but... View More

You may be able to go to the State Bar of Texas website and do a search for attorney that have reported they are also licensed in Arkansas. You MIGHT be able to do the same thing on the Arkansas State Bar website.
I hope this information helps. Good luck to you.
I don’t have the money to fly to Oregon and get another lawyer to force him to refinance. I also learned he put the home in forbearance while the divorce was still processing. So now he has to either pay back 30 grand before he can refinance OR have me agree to sign papers to put that money on... View More

You need to consult your divorce attorney and move to hold him in contempt in the divorce case. He will likely have to hold you harmless on the debt regardless.
This is Utah. I called police as i thought i had intruders in my home. they did a search and had me go to the hospital for a evaluation. They executed the search warrant to cover after i had left upon where they found illegal marijuana oil. They then got another warrant for that. The first warrant... View More

There's quite a bit going on here, and I would need more information to really evaluate the situation. It sounds like during the initial sweep of the house for intruders, the police may have seen something that prompted them and gave them a basis to get the first warrant. You would need to see...

i got wrongly pulled over for a stop sign that led to my car being searched and me being in handcuffs because it smelled like marijuana i am trying to find out if what the cop did to me is wrong or not
answered on Jan 14, 2022
Yes.
One of the legitimate investigative tools for the police is personal observation and senses. Thus, if a police officer detects a smell of controlled substances that provides a reasonable probable cause to continue to investigate possible contraband in the vehicle.

My fiancé was arrested for his friend leaving a marijuana roach in his car. He has his medical marijuana license and wasn't aware his friend did that. The cops pulled him over for having a tail light out. The cop noticed the roach right away and told him he was impaired. Had him do a sobriety... View More

The wait is for the blood work. He should request his license. There is no automatic suspension in Pennsylvania. They would have to show that the THC in his blood was sufficient for him to be intoxicated. If they press the charges he should have an attorney. By the way he shouldn't drive with... View More
The person they were riding with had their gun in the car so the charges were enhanced? First time offender so what's the worst case scenario? What kind of time are they looking at?
answered on Jan 2, 2022
They are looking at some considerable time, given the number of dosage units involved. That being said, even with a firearm enhancement, there is still a possibility of having it resolved with minimal or no jail time; however, it all depends on the circumstances. I would highly recommend reaching... View More

It's difficult to answer the question based on the information in the post - Admiralty/Maritime is included as a category, and it would be good to have an attorney with insight into maritime law if the matter involves vessels or activities on navigable waters. But there are other categories as... View More
A possession charge from 2013 was never taken care of. On a trek to take care of old stuff, it was assigned a pre-trial/arraignment date. How likely is it that the judge will dismiss the case given the current legality of marijuana in the state?
answered on Dec 23, 2021
Wow! Haven't seen one of those in awhile. The court would not have to dismiss it, because it sounds like it was charged at the time and just not addressed. However, I would imagine the prosecutor will be very interested in resolving this favorable and quickly.
My discovery is completely inaccurate and it states that I waived my Miranda rights and incriminated myslef a great deal. I never waived my Miranda rights and they put all those words in my mouth, I never said I did anything and that's how the report reads is that I said I did this and that... View More

I’m uncertain about what you are asking…or what the charges are? Hire the best lawyer you can and keep your mouth shut. Please re-ask your question.
I work for a dispensary that is not complaining with rules and regulations.

Unfortunately, this Q&A board is not the place to ask attorneys to respond to you with an agreement to work with you. Furthermore, your post does not really help to determine what your issue may be.
