Charge

Trafficking in a commercial quantity of a controlled drug

Circumstances

Our client was charged with trafficking in a commercial quantity of a controlled drug, namely 700 tablets of ecstasy.

A search warrant was executed on his property with the drugs being found, some tick lists and an amount of $10,000.00 cash.

Shortly after arrest, we secured our client counselling in a drug rehabilitation facility. Further, reference material was obtained from family and friends as well as urine analysis to demonstrate the rehabilitative process that the client had undertaken.

Ultimately, he received a term of imprisonment of two years, one day and six months suspended upon him entering into a good behaviour bond.

Caldicott Lawyers do not guarantee a similar case on these charges will get the same result. Please note that Caldicott Lawyers post results at our discretion, therefore while many case studies are good results, others are notable for their exceptional results.
