According to Maryland law, possession of marijuana is a misdemeanor, regardless of the amount. Most other types of possession cases are misdemeanors as well, but some could be charged as felonies. Just because your possession case may be a misdemeanor does not mean that it is a minor situation. Any type of criminal conviction may have an impact on your life and future.

Potential Punishments for a Drug Possession Conviction

Possession of marijuana: If you are found guilty on a possession of marijuana charge, you are facing up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine.

• In addition, you may be facing up to one year in jail and a $1,000 fine for possessing (with intent to use) marijuana-related drug paraphernalia.

Possession of all other drugs: A conviction on a possession charge pertaining to drugs other than marijuana can leave you facing up to four years in jail and a $25,000 fine.

• Paraphernalia charges (non-marijuana use) also results in the accused individual facing the same type of penalties as if he or she were found guilty of possessing drugs other than marijuana.

It is important to note that possession charges may result in lesser or more severe penalties dependent on each individual situation.
