Will a marijuana possession ticket change my insurance and can a diversion program prevent it from affecting my record?

Answered by attorney Andrea Rogers (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Rogers Law Firm
Receiving a ticket for marijuana possession has nothing to do with your driving record. It is a misdemeanor and will go on your criminal record if you are found guilty. I strongly recommend that you hire an attorney to represent you. Your attorney can probably get the charge reduced to a lesser offense, such as "Littering" and there is no reason your father will find out. Depending on which court your case is in, it's very likely that you won't have to appear in court at all. If you were charged under the "Abuse & Lose" law, then yes, there is a chance your license will be suspended. Without more information, that's all I can tell you. Most of my clients who are caught with marijuana do not face a suspension of their license. I suggest you call around and get price quotes from attorneys for legal representation. Attorneys who handle a lot of marijuana cases can give you a price quote over the phone and an estimate of the fine & court costs that you will end up paying to the court.

What are the consequences if my friend was caught with drugs?

Answered by attorney John Wood Bussman (Unclaimed Profile)
Criminal Law lawyer at The Law Offices of John W. Bussman
Impossible to accurately predict without a lot more info. Is there any evidence that your friend was trying to sell or give away the drugs? What happened after the last arrest (probation, diversion, etc.)? I'd need to spend some quality time with the police reports before I'd be able to evaluate the strength of the case and any possible defenses.

Why I was neither read my rights nor a reason I was being arrested?

The police officer does not have to read you your rights unless he or she is interrogating you while you are in custody.
