California Health and Safety Code Section 11360

Your freedom and future are at stake.

California Health and Safety Code Section 11360

This statute covers selling, transporting, giving away, and furnishing marijuana. This statute differs from California Health and Safety Code Section 11359, possession of marijuana with intent to distribute, in that one must actually sell (or transport, furnish, etc.) marijuana to be convicted. Generally speaking, the prosecution relies upon either a transportation, or sales theory, when prosecuting such cases.

At Glew & Kim, the majority of our cases involve narcotics offenses, and we specialize in the nuances of narcotics laws, including medical marijuanamarijuana DUIjuvenile drug offenses, and federal drug offenses. We focus narcotics defense on obtaining treatment for our clients instead of incarceration.

If you or a loved one are facing charges for selling, transporting, giving away, or furnishing marijuana, don’t wait. Contact Glew & Kim for a free consultation regarding your case.
