How much are fines for marijuana in New York? I was taken for my first time by police and charged with unlawful possession of marijuana. The police confiscated a bong a grinder and an ounce of marijuana. I have a court date and I was wondering how those fines are generally.
According http://norml.com/index.cfm?wtm_view=&Gro ... possession of 25 grams (which is less than an ounce) is a fine of $ 100 and a civil citation is a ticket. Unfortunately possession or sale of accessories is punishable by one year in prison or a fine up to $ 1,000. This is not marijuana, but the gear that can cost you. Get ready to talk to the DA (generally you have the opportunity to "a lot"). Learn about the settlement usual in these cases. I consult with the lawyer for a consultation for an idea of how to negotiate the best possible time and fines.
