Possession for Sale Laws in CA

Drug possession is codified in California Health and Safety Code 11351 HS and can expose defendants to significant penalties. A possession for sale conviction can result in up to four years in county jail and up to $20,000 in fines. Unlike possession for personal use charges, possession for sale charges also make the accused ineligible for diversion programs that can lessen penalties after a conviction.

Possible defenses for possession for sale charges include:

  • Examining Fourth Amendment search and seizure violations
  • Exposing any law enforcement wrongdoing
  • Arguing that the controlled substances were not actually the defendant's
  • Asserting that the controlled substances were for personal use

It's not uncommon for simple possession offense to be charged as possession for sale and it takes assertive and diligent counsel to make this key distinction to prosecutors and/or before a judge and jury. Attorney Daly has worked with toxicologists and other experts to scrutinize the elements of these cases and consider all possible defenses in pursuit of the best outcome possible.
