Marijuana Charges

Marijuana (also known as pot, weed, reefer, grass and cannabis) is the most frequently used illegal substance in Tennessee and the United States. Tennessee's marijuana laws are particularly harsh; charges and convictions can lead to severe punishments, including both criminal punishments and additional indirect consequences, including a ban from certain financial aid for educational purposes and public housing.

How to Avoid a Conviction of Marijuana Charges

Your defense attorney may be able to assist you in finding an error committed by an officer that can result in your charge being dropped or reduced or other defenses. Your attorney will help you determine your best option for a defense or plea deal based on the facts of your case, past criminal history and any other mitigating circumstances.

• Motion to Dismiss - This motion can be filed by your attorney if there is not enough evidence to charge you specifically with a cannabis offense.

• Motion to Suppress - This can be filed by your attorney to prevent the prosecution from using evidence found as a result of an illegal search and seizure.

If a search of your home, car or person was illegally conducted by the police, any cannabis found from the search is inadmissible as evidence. A motion to suppress would preclude the prosecution from using this evidence in a case against you.
