The forthcoming guidance is expected to have a larger impact in smaller, more rural areas, where prosecutors have often been often unwilling to downgrade charges absent a directive from the top law enforcement official in the state. Minor marijuana possession, under 50 grams, is normally charged as a disorderly persons offense. However, it is anticipated that possession of larger amounts of marijuana, or possession with intent to distribute will continue to be prosecuted. Stayed tuned for updates.
All the Best!
