criminal defense
Drug Charges
Drug Schedules
Schedule I
Substances in this category have a high potential for abuse, no accepted medical use in treatment, and lack accepted safety for use under medical supervision. Examples include heroin, fentanyl, and LSD.
Schedule II
Substances in this category have a high potential for abuse but may have accepted medical uses with severe restrictions. Examples include certain prescription medications like oxycodone, morphine, and methadone.
Controlled Substances
Schedule I and II drugs are classified as controlled substances, and they include substances with a high potential for abuse and no accepted or limited accepted medical uses.
unlawful Search & seizure
The Fourth Amendment protects against unreasonable searches and seizures. If law enforcement conducted an unlawful search without a warrant or without a valid exception, the evidence may be suppressed.
Potential Defenses
Valid Prescription: If an individual has a valid prescription for a Schedule II drug, they may have a defense against possession charges. However, improper use or distribution of prescription medications can still lead to legal consequences.
Lack of Possession: The prosecution must prove that the defendant had actual or constructive possession of the drugs. If the drugs were not found on the person or in their immediate control, it might be argued that they lacked possession.
Other defenses may include: chain of custody issues, entrapment, crime lab analysis error, illegal stop or arrest, or invalid warrant.
Alternative Sentencing
Rehab programs & Drug court
In some cases, individuals may be eligible for alternative sentencing options, such as drug court programs, which focus on rehabilitation rather than solely punishment.
Drug court is judicial monitoring of intensive treatment and strict supervision of addicts in drug and drug-related cases.
Rehab programs and recovery aren’t about getting a certificate; it’s about finding new ways to approach life’s problems. An intensely supported 24/7 program can serve to halt addiction and jumpstart the road to recovery.
What is Drug Court?
Drug Court is essentially judicial monitoring of intensive treatment and strict supervision of addicts in drug and drug-related cases. Successful completion of drug court may result in charges being dismissed.
