Possession with Intent to Deliver

Under Michigan law, you can be charged with a felony if you are accused of possession of a controlled substance with the intent to deliver. Depending on the type of drug found in your possession you will face varying punishments if convicted. The Public Health Code classifies drugs from Schedule 1 through Schedule 5 based on what type of substance the drug includes.

Anyone facing charges stemming from possession with intent to deliver needs an experienced Michigan drug crime lawyer to build a defense. Our team at Grewal Law PLLC is ready to be your advocate and to build the best strategy for you.

At our firm, the attorneys know you are innocent until proven guilty and will fight by your side throughout the entire legal process. We will conduct a thorough investigation to find any weaknesses in the prosecutor’s case. These include the violation of your 4th Amendment rights related to illegal search and seizure of your property.

Drug Charges & Law Enforcement Evidence

In order for the prosecution to prove you had the intent to deliver a drug certain evidence must be found. Typical evidence includes having a law enforcement officer see you give the drug to another person or finding the drugs packaged for distribution to other people. There does not have to be any evidence of money being exchanged in order for the charges to be brought against you.

Other evidence gathered when formulating these charges may include the amount of the drugs you had in your possession or the presence of tools such as scales used for packaging. While building a defense in your case, we will find any problems in the investigation including the illegal collection of evidence to other actions of misconduct by law enforcement. Grewal Law PLLC is ready to build your defense.

Penalties for Different Level Drug Charges

Charges related to the possession with the intent to deliver a Schedule 1 or Schedule 2 controlled substance are very serious and come with felony charges. These include substances such as cocaine, methamphetamines, ecstasy and heroin. The amount of the substance in your possession impacts the severity of the punishment from a conviction as outlined below.

  • 1,000 grams or more is a felony punishable by up to life imprisonment or a fine of up to $1,000,000 or both.
  • 450 grams, but less than 1,000 grams is a felony punishable by up to 30 years in prison or a fine of up to $500,000 or both.
  • 50 grams, but less than 450 grams is also a felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison or a fine of up to $250,000 or both.
  • Less than 50 grams is a felony punishable by up to 20 years in prison or a fine of up to $25,000 or both.

The penalties for possession with intent to deliver are more severe for these drugs because they are considered more dangerous and have a higher potential for abuse.

Penalties for other schedule drugs are less severe. Anyone with the intent to deliver a Schedule 3 drug could receive a 7-year felony jail term and fines up to $10,000. Finally, charges related to Schedule V drugs include a two-year felony jail term with fines up to $2,000.
