Drug offense penalties can be very serious. You could end up in county jail or state prison. You could lose your driver’s license, have to pay a fine, and/or be required to register as a narcotics offender. Punishment depends on the type and quantity of the drugs involved, whether the drugs were for personal use or for sale, and if the defendant has a criminal record.
In California, drug treatment is considered more appropriate than jail time for non-violent individuals with drug abuse problems. Depending on your situation, you may be eligible for one of three alternatives:
Proposition 36:
Deferred Entry of Judgment (also known as DEJ or Diversion)
Drug Court
PCDC (Post Conviction Drug Court)
