Marijuana Arrests – What you need to Know, Bail Bonds

Even with Marijuana being legal in California there are still several marijuana arrests. LAX has even seen a surge of pot smuggling by over 160% plus since the legalization. There are many strict rules that come with the legalization of pot.

Marijuana Arrests

  • You may only possess 28.5 grams of a plant. Roughly about one ounce.
  • Driving under the influence is illegal and selling to minors.
  • No consumption on federal lands like national parks which can also lead to a marijuana arrest.
  • Only 8 grams if the cannabis is concentrated.
  • Giving pot or selling to minors is illegal.
  • Property owners and landlords may ban the use on their properties
  • Only state-licensed establishments may sell cannabis.
