It depends on the quantity in possesion and state you are in. In states such as California, Oregon, and Washington small amounts are misdimenors; larger amount they may add Possesioin with intent to sell
if it is anything under an ounce of marijuana its a misdemeanor, and ounce or over is a felony. However some states such as Utah, marijuana is a felony despite the amount of possession
Yes and no! Texas has some of the harshest penalties for being in possession of marijuana, but it depends on the amount of marijuana in your possession and your criminal background! First offenses are usually considered a misdemeanor. After repeted violations it is a felony!
Selling is a felony...smoking is a misdemeanor... sooooooo get high ;)
If you are charged with possession with intent to sell or deliver, it is a class B felony. If you are only charged with possession it is a misdemeanor.
It depends on the legislation of the country.
Possession is only a misdemeanor in the US. At worst, you'll get a fine. Unless you have multiple ounces, which I forgot the exact amount, then you will get a felony charge, and that's prison time. I think you'll get a felony charge because the court will just assume that's intent to deal, which is why is you have a scale on you, that's also a felony charge.

It depends on the state, but typically the amount of drugs someone is carrying and the type of drug can make the difference between a misdemeanor or a felony.
It is possible, try copping a plea with the prosecutor. If you give him something, he may reciprocate.

Misdemeanor.
Depends on state but usually possession of large qty (implies distribution) is what seperates mis from felony some areas.
Personally I am unfamiliar with the LA statute but in many (most?) jurisdictions whether it is classified as a felony or a misdemeanor depends on the dollar amount of the property in question. (e.g.: possession of a stolen tricycle would be a misdemeanor, but possession of a stolen truck would be a felony)
Its A felony :(
Felony.
