The outcome will depend on which type of charges (Possession? Possession with Intent to Distribute? Use of a Juvenile in Distribution? Leader of Narcotics Trafficking Network?); the gradation of the charges; and, whether any of the charges have mandatory sentencing consequences. Either repost with additional information or consult directly with an experienced criminal defense lawyer licensed in MI before you go to Court. Good luck.

Regretfully, your question is impossible to answer without more information. Additionally, you should be very careful about discussing your case on open forums. You never know who might see your information and forward it to local law enforcement. Anything you say (or type) can be used against you. I highly recommend you consult with an experienced criminal defense lawyer at your first opportunity so that you can tell him/her exactly what's going on and they can tell you what can be done to help and what you may be looking at if you're convicted. If you want to ask me any specific questions, please feel free to call me (248) 263-6800.
