Q. Whats the difference between charges 2C:35-10A(4) and 2C:36-2

October 22, 2020

A: The first makes it a disorderly offense to possess marijuana and the second outlaws possession of drug paraphernalia- such as hypodermic needles and marijuana smoking pipes . Both are disorderly offenses.

Q. What would be the best option in this situation

October 17, 2020

A: I am sorry to know of your family and legal issues. The legal issues are very complicated and are serious so I strongly urge you to retain an attorney . His/her fee will not be cheap but necessary in my opinion. Good luck to you.

Q. We were cited for failure of driver to stop/stay stopped for pedestrians. Code 39:4-32B will there be points for this?

October 16, 2020

A: No points, but fine and costs upon conviction.
