Distribution of Marijuana Defense Lawyers in Vallejo
In California, a person can be charged with distribution of marijuana if
they knowingly transport, import, sell, furnish, administer, or give away
any amount of marijuana. A person can also face marijuana distribution
charges for offering to transport, import, sell, furnish, administer or
give away any amount of marijuana. This means that a person can still
be criminally prosecuted for the crime, even if he or she never actually
carried out the offense. The penalties for distribution of marijuana depend
on the quantity of marijuana involved.
Distributing more than 28.5 grams of marijuana is a misdemeanor offense,
and is punishable by no more than a $100 fine. In addition, a person may face enhanced penalties for distributing marijuana
in a school zone or near a playground, church, or some other religious
establishment.
