Phoenix Marijuana Lawyer: Felony Charges for Marijuana Trafficking

Marijuana transport and production are sentenced according to the marijuana trafficking guidelines under Arizona law. In general, this will mean a felony on your record if you are convicted. You may also face steep fines, drug rehab that you must pay for, and jail or prison time.

In some cases, however, you may be able to work with a Phoenix marijuana lawyer in order to have that felony charge reduced or even thrown out entirely. This will depend very much on the other factors in your case, and you should contact an attorney with any specific questions about your case.

In general, for the production of marijuana, you may be charged with:

• A class 5 felony for less than 2 pounds of marijuana
• A class 4 felony for 2 to 4 pounds of marijuana
• A class 3 felony for 4 or more pounds of marijuana

In general, for transporting or importing marijuana in Arizona, you may be charged with:

• A class 3 felony for transporting or importing less than 2 pounds of marijuana
• A class 2 felony for transporting or importing more than 2 pounds of marijuana
