Understanding Illinois Drug Scheduling and Charges
The state of Illinois follows the federal Drug Enforcement Administration's scheduling for illegal or controlled substances. This drug schedule helps identify the danger and potential for addiction of any drug. Drugs are classified on a scale, and if the drug you were found to be in possession or under the influence of is on the lower end of the drug schedule, then the penalties could be high.
Of course, each individual's particular case will vary, and depending on the type, amount and intended use of the drug found on you, you could be facing a variety of sentencing possibilities. It is important that you disclose the details of your case only to your attorney and that, immediately following an arrest, you contact Albert L. Wysocki Attorney At Law as soon as possible.
