Understanding Your Defense

What constitutes a first-degree drug offense in Minnesota?

First-degree drug offenses are serious, involving the sale of significant amounts of narcotics such as cocaine, heroin, or methamphetamines. They can potentially lead to 30 years imprisonment and fines up to $1 million.

Does Minnesota consider wax a felony?

Yes, despite evolving views on marijuana, possession of wax (cannabis concentrates) can quickly escalate to felony charges due to its concentrated form, separating it from traditional plant-form marijuana penalties.

Are marijuana-related offenses always felonies?

In Minnesota, while possession of small amounts for personal use may not always result in felony charges, possessing over 42.5 grams of plant-form marijuana or more than 25 grams of wax and any sale of marijuana can constitute a felony.

How are drug offenses differentiated by degrees?

Drug offenses in Minnesota are categorized from first to fifth degree, based on factors like the drug type, its classification, amount, and the intent behind possession or sale. Severity and penalties increase from fifth to first degree.

How do prior convictions affect my case?

Prior drug-related convictions can significantly influence the severity of sentencing. Depending on the current charge’s degree, minimum and maximum sentences may increase, underscoring the need for an experienced defense.
