I was Charged with Possession of a Controlled Dangerous Substance with Intent to Distribute in NJ

  • Some possession with intent to distribute will require that you serve some prison time, also with some mandatory period of parole ineligibility.
  • Charges range in degrees from the fourth degree, which would be up to 18 months in state prison, up to a first-degree possession with intent to distribute which could land you in prison for up to 20 years.

I was Charged with Possession with Intent Within 500 Feet of a Park or Housing Project

  • Being caught within 500 feet of public housing or a public park elevates that crime up to a second degree.
  • You would be facing a mandatory period in state prison of between five and ten years.
  • You have to understand that what makes it that level is the fact that it was within that 500 feet.

I was Charged with Possession with Intent Within 1000 Feet of a School Zone

  • Possession with intent within 1000 feet of a school zone is slightly different than your normal possession.
  • State prison is mandatory, as well as a period of parole ineligibility.
  • You’d be looking at about nine months additional because you possessed it with an attempt to distribute within a school zone.
