Possession of Less Than an Ounce - Felony or Not
In most instances, possession of less than an ounce of marijuana is a misdemeanor. However, it is quite possible to possess less than an ounce and still be guilty of a felony. For example, if you intend to distribute (sell) the marijuana, that would be a felony. Even sharing a joint with a friend could be construed as intent to distribute and bootstrap the charge to a felony offense.
Felony Possession of Marijuana
If you possess more than an ounce, sell, grow, or intend to distribute any quantity of marijuana, you can go to prison for up to ten years.
And don't forget, even a misdemeanor marijuana conviction can result in a driver's license suspension for a minimum period of 6 months with no limited driving permit.
