       Possession of marijuana and dangerous drugs is treated seriously in Arizona.  If you are charged with such an offense, always talk to an attorney before taking any action in the case.  This is true even if the officer used a citation similar to a traffic citation.

       In Yuma, Arizona the sentence for a first offense of simple possession of marijuana is a fine of $1,500.00 with probation.  In fact, this is required by a special statute. 

       Other problems can be created by simply entering a plea of guilty.  These include a permanent limitation in certain professions which require finger print identification.  These professions vary and will vary in the future.  If there is even the slightest possibility that you may be employed in such a field, talk to an attorney before taking any action.
