California is unique in regards to drug crime cases primarily due to alternative sentencing laws as well as medical marijuana. Your San Bernardino drug crimes lawyer should have familiarity with these and understand how to use them in your favor. For instance, Proposition 36, the Substance Abuse and Crime Prevention Act, allows for drug treatment/rehabilitation rather than imprisonment for certain first and second time non-violent drug possession offenders. California law has also legalized the use of marijuana for certain medical purposes, and thus marijuana possession, cultivation and distribution offenses may have a valid defense if they were done in relation to medical marijuana.
