FAQ
Generally, for a court to find that a person had constructive possession of an object, the person must have had knowledge of the object, and as well as the ability to control it. For example, someone with keys to a safe deposit box may have constructive possession to the contents of that box.
Whether your constructive possession case involves illegal drugs, firearms, or anything else, the penalties can be detrimental. You could face fines, probation, imprisonment, and more, not to mention the hardships that can come from having a criminal record.
Federal law prohibits the unlawful manufacturing, distribution, use, and possession of controlled substances. Penalties depend on various factors, including the type and amount of the drug involved, and whether there is intent to distribute.
Drug possession bail bonds in Lake County FL range from $1,000 bond for misdemeanor possession of cannabis under 20 grams, up to a $50,000 bond for trafficking in a controlled substance.
Penalties for Narcotic Charges in Florida. Florida Statute 893.13. 6A makes it a third-degree felony to possess a controlled substance. A third-degree felony is punishable by up to five years in prison and a fine of $5,000.
You can be convicted of possession of a controlled substance in Texas if you exercised “care, custody, and control” over a controlled substance. Attempted possession of a controlled substance occurs when you had “specific intent” to commit the crime of drug possession but failed to complete the crime.
It doesn't have to be physically on you. It doesn't have to be yours. If you know it's a controlled substance, and you exercise control over it (or could do so), then you're in possession.
For example, you might be arrested for attempted possession of a controlled substance if you are caught trying to buy drugs from a drug dealer, but the drug dealer does not actually give you the drugs.
