Possession of Marijuana Reduced to Disorderly Conduct

Our client was charged with possession of marijuana, which is an ungraded misdemeanor. The maximum penalty our client faced was 6 months of incarceration. The Pittsburgh criminal defense lawyers at Worgul, Sarna & Ness, Criminal Defense Attorneys, LLC were able to negotiate with prosecutors for our client to plead to disorderly conduct, which can be expunged from our client’s record after 5 years. The plea deal allowed our client to avoid conviction on the possession of marijuana charge.

The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
