Charges for a St. Louis marijuana possession are not all that uncommon. Thousands and thousands of such charges are written up every year. But the most important thing is how you handle the situation. One option is of course to simply plead guilty to the charge. You should know, however, that if you plead guilty as charged then the state can assess the following penalties:

As of January 1, 2017, the following laws regarding marijuana possession went into effect:

1. If you are caught with less 10 grams of marijuana, it is a Class D Misdemeanor (unless you’ve already been convicted on a prior possession charge, in which case it would be a Class A Misdemeanor).
2. If you are caught with between 10 – 35 grams, it is a Class A Misdemeanor.
3. If you are caught with between 35 grams – 30 kilograms, it is a Class C Felony.

Instead of dealing with these potential penalties, it is far better to hire an experienced lawyer to help guide you. At The Bankruptcy Company, the two main ways we deal with the type of charge is to get the charges dropped, or get the charges reduced to some lesser infraction.
