OF COURSE THEY GO......\n\nPIRATING THING IS A SERIOUS OFFENCE ACCORDING TO PENAL CODE 293 ARTICAL 3(a). A PERSON CAN BE JAILED FROM 6 MONTHS TO 5 YEARS ACCOMPANIED BY FINE DEPENDING ON THE OFFENCE HE HAS DONE. \n\nAS FAR AS CONSUMER IS CONCERNED THEY CAN REPORT SUCH MATTERS TO CONSUMER COURTS AND GET THEM BEHIND THE JAIL. THIS RIGHT IS PROVIDED BY THE CONSTITUTION TO THE PEOPLE.\n\nTHE POINT TO BE REMEMBERED HERE IS THAT ONLY THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE PATENTED AND COPYRIGHTED ARE ELIGIBLE TO SEND ONE TO JAIL IF THEY ARE NOT PATENTED OR COPYRIGHTED THEY CAN BE PIRATED LEGALLY.

Richard Lyle Austin was arrested in South Dakota for possession of a controlled substance with intent to distribute on 02 August 1990. He pled guilty, and on 07 September 1990, authorities seized the mobile home and the body shop owned by Austin as both locations were used by Austin in the deal. Austin filed a suit claiming the seizures violated his 8th Amendment rights vis a vis the Excessive Fines Clause.\n\nThe following is a cut and paste job from http://www.druglibrary.org/Schaffer/legal/l1990/richard_lyle_austin.htm\n\nAfter a state court sentenced petitioner Austin on his guilty plea to one count of possessing cocaine with intent to distribute in violation of South Dakota law, the United States filed an in rem action in Federal District Court against his mobile home and auto body shop under 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(4) and (a)(7), which provide for the forfeiture of, respectively, vehicles and real property used, or intended to be used, to facilitate the commission of certain drug related crimes. In granting the Government summary judgment on the basis of an officer's affidavit that Austin had brought two ounces of cocaine from the mobile home to the body shop in order to consummate a prearranged sale there, the court rejected Austin's argument that forfeiture of his properties would violate the Eighth Amendment's Excessive Fines Clause. The Court of Appeals affirmed, agreeing with the Government that the Eighth Amendment is inapplicable to in rem civil forfeitures.

He faces both Kansas felony charges and Federal charges.  Chances are he will be indicted on a charge of transportation of marijuana accross state lines, because the federal charges carry a much stiffer sentence, and the federal system doesn't use parole.  However, its a felony at either level.

Indeed depends on the amount and if it was recovered. Revovery of the money (if the lawyer is any good) can get you a deal from 'better' prison to 50% off.\n\nOfficially punishable by as much as 2-4 years in a state prison, regardless of the value of taken property, money, or labor for repeat offenders.

Its not that hard once you know how to go about it.  The problem with this knowledge is that if you have it and the government can prove that you have that knowledge it is considered a felony.  Also if you are cought with the stuff you can be charged with intent to kill for every leathal dose of the drug you have.  So for a few grams of the stuff you can be put in jail for the rest of your life.

No one can answer this question with certainty because of the plea bargaining process.  His sentence (if he is convicted) could range from probation to prison time.  It just depends on what plea arrangement he works out, or what a judge/jury sentences him to.

pot, cheapest takes six months to grow over one pound of decent weed which you could sell 3/4 of it and smoke the rest throughout the other six months

It depends on what their sentence is.  That is up to the courts.  \nFor instance... i was put on probation for felony prescription fraud for 3 years with deferred adjudicaton.  However, after doing 1.5 years i petitioned the courts to grant early release based on my performance.  I was really serious (and still am) about leading the clean life and steering clear of trouble now, and my comm officer knew that.  \n\nUnfortunately, regardless of whether my sentence was deferred i still have to check "yes" in that little box that asks "have you ever been arrested?" on an employment form.  \n\nIt's a hard lesson learned that will follow me for the rest of my life.\n\nThe way i understand it is, i will have to wait another 5 years to have the "arrest" not show up anymore... if i am lucky... and that is a big if.\n\nMoral of the story... stay away from drugs.

NO! I'm from Ontario, Canada.  Under a certain amount (grams) you will only get a fine instead of going to jail.  People seem to think we're just a bunch of igloo dwelling, gay marrying, beer drinking, potheads who are too polite, and say aboot instead of about.

Depends on the state but it's a serious crime in every state.  In my state it's 10 to 40 years and if you're a good inmate you only have to serve 85 % of if.

In Texas, a class A misdemeanor is punishable up to 365 days in County Jail. Most offenders receive 2 days for 1 served,unless they are a jail trustee, then they may receive 3 for 1.

More specifics please.  It varies from state to state.  Is this the person's first time for a drug felony?  In many states the first and or second time for simple possession charges the court will offer a plea agreement.\n\nIn Arizona most first time drug offenders are offered a "Diversion Program".  This includes regular drug testing, counseling, 12 step program participation, etc.  It is used in conjuction with a probation period of one to three years.  \n\nFurther, the court will sometimes offer to make it an "undesignated felony".  In other words, if you complete the program, you will not have a felony conviction on your record.  The program is used to educate individuals, and stop illegal drug use before you end up in more legal situations.\n\nHopefully your state offers such a program.  It gives you a second chance not to become a convicted felony for the rest of your life.  And maybe, just maybe, it will stop you from being a drug addict too!  Good luck.

Basic answer: I'm fairly sure it's what is known as a 16-2-3 felony...meaning you can get 16 months, 2 years or 3 years in prison.\n\nDon't freak out.  Post some more information and I can probably narrow that down for you.  Sometimes we charge 11350 and we're wrong.  Here's what I would want to know to give you a better idea:\n\nWhat was the drug?\n\nHow much of it was there?\n\nDoes the arrestee have prior convictions for anything?\n\nIs the arrested person on probation or parole?\n\nAnd above all else, it ain't over until the fat lady sings, and nobody gets punished for anything if they're not guilty.  \n\nPost some more details and I'll keep an eye on this question so I can come back and edit my answer.\n\nDon't tell me anything the police don't already know (in other words, don't tell me your boyfriend got arrested for a quarter gram of cocaine but the cops missed the four kilos at the house).\n\n2/9/06: Well, depending on the county he's on probation in, prison is certainly a possibility.  Failing to appear and having a dirty test are bad enough, but to have more cocaine (and based on the 11350 charge you're asking about, I'm assuming it was coke...meth would be 11377) on him when he was arrested is certainly not good.  He may well have probation revoked and reinstated (basically a "do-over") and might end up with a lengthy stay in jail as a sanction.  I have to tell you, though...depending on the county you guys are in, prison is not out of the question.  Some counties are lenient and others are not.  Prop 36 (not 39) court is a good thing, but you have to behave if you want to stay in it.  \n\nWas he charged with a new possession offense when he was arrested, or are they handling the dope he had on him when he was arrested as just a violation of probation?  I would imagine they'll handle it as a violation of probation, rather than opening a whole new case...and a VOP can sometimes carry a stiffer penalty than a new case.  A lot of this will also depend on what the terms of his probation were when he was put into Prop 36 court.  If he received a suspended sentence (meaning that the judge told him he will send him to prison if he screws up *again*, but will let him do Prop 36 instead), he may very well go to prison on this new violation.  \n\nThere's a lot of variables and once your boyfriend has had a chance to talk with his attorney, he'll have a pretty good idea of where his case is heading.\n\nIf you are really as unfamiliar with drugs as you've said, I've got to suggest that maybe this guy is not for you.  It would appear that he's a little *too* familiar with drugs...and although that wasn't your question, that is my answer.\n\nBest of luck to both of you.

My son recently failed a drug test while on probation. It is his first violation of probation. He is in jail now and will be there for another 6 months waiting for a new public defender to be assigned to him and a hearing which is in Nov. The state is requesting he serve 20-30 months. Depending on what your crime was originally as well as the judge handling your case, will decide on what happens to you. If you were originally arrested for a drug crime, you will probably go to a drug rehab live-in facility. If your crime was not drug related, then you will probably serve time in jail. The length of time depends on the severity of the crime you were charged with and how many VOP's (violation of probations) you have had. My advise to you is to call your probation officer and inquire about going to a drug rehab. program and admit you have a problem. If you don't, he will just soon have you picked up anyways. It would look better for you to show you are wanting help of your own free will.
