What are the Defenses to Charges Related to Drugs?

Some drug crimes are what we call wobblers, meaning they can be charged as a misdemeanor or a felony. That may depend on the aggravating circumstances of the case and the individual’s prior committal history.

There are defenses to drug crimes. Some of those defenses include having a prescription for the drugs charged, entrapment, that there was a search or seizure violation by the police officer or that the drugs did not belong to the person accused of the crime.

A criminal defense attorney at the Law Office of Ms. Johnson-Norris is in the best position to evaluate your case and your best possible defense.
