Texas Drug Possession Law

There is no one blanket drug possession law in the Texas statutes and each one of these possession cases must be considered on a case-by-case basis. That means the severity of the drug possession charge can vary on a number of different factors.

Important factors in a drug possession charge include:

• The type of drug involved
• The quantity of drug involved
• The kind of possession cited at the arrest (actual vs. constructive)
• The presence of firearms or paraphernalia
• The criminal history of the accused

Many times, drug possession cases are vulnerable to search and seizure violations by law enforcement, which can lead to a dismissal. However, no matter what the circumstances of your arrest were, it takes skilled and trusted counsel to arrive at the best possible resolution. If you have been charged, call J. Roland Jeter, P.C. today.
