Everything You Need To Know About Drug Crimes In Texas
In Dallas, harsh punishments can follow a conviction for drug possession or possession of a restricted substance (POCS). Criminal records, jail time, fines, the inability to pursue specific careers, and the suspension or loss of driving privileges are all possible penalties for violators. Therefore, to develop your most vigorous defense, you must speak with a Dallas drug crime lawyer in Fort Worth if you have accusations of possessing drugs.
Drug Crime Charges
Because drug offenses are severe felonies with serious repercussions, you should hire a criminal lawyer who isn't scared to take on the most complex cases.
Charges for drugs may include:
Possession.
Offenses related to federal drug conspiracy.
Sales.
Trafficking.
Manufacturing.
Cultivation.
Delivery.
Texas's Controlled Substances Act Penalties
An individual who has accusations of drug trafficking should contact a Dallas drug crime lawyer right away. A trafficking conviction carries serious repercussions, such as lengthy prison sentences and severe financial fines.
The Act divides drugs into four categories, each with a unique set of penalties. For instance, category one medications include:
Opiates.
Ketobemidone.
Methanol.
Heroin.
Cocaine.
Below is a list of some common drug offenses in Texas and the possible punishments. Your Dallas drug offense lawyer will work hard to help you avoid them.
Possession of a substance with less than one gram is a state jail felony, punishable by two years in prison with a penalty of up to $10,000.
Possession of a substance with less than one gram has a punishment of 180 days to two years in prison and a penalty of $10,000.
Marijuana possession is punishable by up to five to ninety-nine years in prison and a fine of up to $50,000.
Delivering more than 2,000 pounds of marijuana will result in charge of life imprisonment, five to ninety-nine years, and a fine of up to $100,000.
Texas Federal Drug Law Enforcement
Texas and federal laws allow for charges against someone caught producing or selling illegal substances. In addition, the federal Controlled Substances Act classifies drugs into many categories. It imposes various penalties based on the drug category, just like the Texas Controlled Substances Act.
For instance, a first-offense conviction for trafficking 5 kg or more of cocaine (a Schedule I substance) can result in a sentence of at least ten years in prison and significant financial punishment.
Getting In Touch With A Dallas Drug Crime Lawyer
It would be best to never give up without discussing your case with a drug crime lawyer since your life is worth protecting. Your attorney must be familiar with Dallas criminal law and will be able to suggest the action for your case. If a plea bargain is your best option, a drug crime lawyer can tell you that; don't just guess.
Before you accept the prosecutor's proposed plea agreement, speak with a Fort Worth drug lawyer about your legal options since there are ways to avoid conviction for drug charges.
Using the resources provided by The Medlin Law Firm will help potential criminal defendants be as prepared as possible to comprehend the legal system and choose a trustworthy attorney.
