Gert T Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 Hey I got some legal questions. I was awaken at about 4:30 am from my friend calling me from the police station telling me he had just got arrested for DUI, and wanting to bail him out of the county jail. I went down and bailed him out at about noon the next day. He's got three charges against him: DUI, possesion of marijuana, and not wearing a seat belt. A couple of questions. If he plans on just pleading guilty should he hire a lawyer? The lawyer wants 750 bucks up front so I don't know what his total cost will be. He told me he had 3 oz. or grams of pot on him. (Sorry I don't know my pot unit of measurements ) What will he get for that tyoe of possesion? He actually got pulled over in a White Castle drive-thru so his seat belt was off to get his wallet, should he contest that, or focus on the other two charges? Thanks legal beagles.
Guest Chuck E Cheese Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 big difference between 3 oz and 3 grams buddy.
Guest CoreyLazarus416 Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 I'd say contest the seatbelt, since not much can happen in a DRIVE-THRU, and sometimes you need to take off your seatbelt for a moment.
Guest The Czech Republic Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 If you've got a DUI and possession charges against you, you're essentially fucked. Never mind the seatbelt.
Gert T Posted August 3, 2003 Author Report Posted August 3, 2003 (edited) big difference between 3 oz and 3 grams buddy. Well it was the smaller one, and I'm glad I didn't just guess! OK, I just found out it was 1/8 if that helps? Edited August 3, 2003 by Gert T
Guest cobainwasmurdered Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 Get a lawyer. Plead Guilty and hope for leiniency.
Guest Beavis Posted August 3, 2003 Report Posted August 3, 2003 OK, I just found out it was 1/8 if that helps? Well, that's not a whole lot so they shouldn't get him for attempting to deliver, like they could if it was a larger amount. Get a lawyer.
