When you see the 100 or so cases a day they do of these charges you'll know what's up and be reassured. Never rat anyone out over misdemeanor charges!
...I never actually snitched on anyone! (You should've read this whole thread first) Anywaysss thanks this is some good advice, I was thinking about something similar to this.

If you snitch it will come back to you. Worse then a couple grams would get you
I have one loan, it's not a lot tho. & I didn't snitch lol

Good point! It's never right to trade punishment for your mistakes for someone else's freedom.
HH, these are just general points. Don't take them personally.
Glad to see you're considering taking my advice. Everybody should do this. It's free and doesn't take much time. You can do it on your schedule and stay as long or as little as you like.
You'll see some funny shit for sure, and you'll know exactly how the judge responds to every situation. I've seen lots of people that could have avoided a larger sentence if they only knew what NOT to say.
For example, when you plead guilty you usually have to describe and admit all the points of your crime. The judge will often try to get names out of you. I saw this one guy tell some convoluted story to avoid giving names. The judge let him keep going on and on, and kept questioning him. At the end the judge got pissed at him and said, "Why didn't you just tell me that you're not a narc instead of lying to ME in MY court?"
Luckily, that judge respected non-narcs and gave him the standard sentence anyways.
Anyways, you're fine. The punishment in my area is a $600 fine, no jail, no probation. And that's actually pretty steep. Most places it's more like $250.

I'm guessing this is long over since you said January but since it bumped back up I would like to add something that might be of help to people in similar situations.
Where I live, there is an attorney that handles first offense misdemeanor marijuana charges for free. Personally he feels it should not be illegal and in his ads he always said, First offense is always free until its Legal!
He advertises in the local bar/music scene magazines. I believe... but not positive there was also an attorney that did something similar years ago in another state I lived in. So it wouldn't hurt to check and see if there is any attorneys offering similar services in your area.
I've never been charged with anything so I have never had to use him, but if I ever was charged (which is unlikely because I don't smoke) I would definitely use him because he has probably seen a ton of cases and knows all the ins and out, and also it's something he is passionate about so I feel he would give it his all on every case.
