There's no way to give good advice without details.how much did you get busted with.what are the charges? Did they charge you with possession with intent or simple possession? If it's just simple possession probably just put you on court supervision or probation.go to the court house and talk to a public defender.if your not in jail trust me your gonna be all right.

Even though you're not in Michigan. Still bring up the fact that you're medically approved in Michigan to your lawyer,
prosecutor and Judge and tell him it's not like your medical situation changed because you crossed a border. It could
lessen any penalties you get and it doesn't hurt to use anything to your advantage.

Like a diabetic in Alaska is still a diabetic in Mexico. ;)

Just try to stay calm. The stress you impose on yourself right now will be worse than any sentence they hit you with.

I grew ten plants in my bedroom closet in a shared rented house in 2007 as a student at UC Davis. Outdoor here in El Sobrante in '99 too. Instead of a license for legal recreational cultivation, I have a resume with volunteering, missing identification cards, and a case of identity theft from years ago.

It's still a misdemeanor. You'll most likely get hit with 6-12 months probation, and that's it. Not that serious. I'm assuming you're just a casual smoker, and got caught up with something small.

Stigma is only what you make it. If we are afraid or do not want the "mark" on our "records" that is just that. If you are proud of ganja use and have no plan to show anyone an arrest record as though it is some sort of problem then no problem. Fines and fees and hassle are just that. Hopefully no jail time and there isn't anything they can do other than try to make your life difficult. Best wishes.

Lol I know your probably not serious but that's the last thing you want to do.you do that and you'll have to see a court appointed psychologist which could takes months.and they will find you competent more than likely.actually the good thing about doing this means you'd be taking it to trial and they won't want to take a misdimeanor pot case to trial so maybe this wouldn't be such a crazy idea since your not in jail.if you WERE in jail you'd be spending 4 months minimum to take it to trial.that would suck.

So yeah,if it's a misdimeanor pot charge you could just fuck with them and take it to trial.they might not wanna deal with it and spend $15000 on a trial and just drop the charges after dealing with a stupid case for 8 months or that might just piss them off and wanna give you the max.

Personally id just take the probation.unless you've got terminal cancer or something they aren't gonna drop the charges based on medical reasons.the judicial system very rarely has compassion.they want that fine money.your gonna pay every month in probation fees.your probably not gonna get it dropped.just get probation over with or take a few months in jail.those are your realistic options.ive been to jail enough to know how it works
