Drug Schedules in Virginia

Under the Virginia Code §18.2-250, all controlled substances that a person may be in possession of, be under the influence of, or in any way be able to sell or distribute can be charged as a drug crime. Depending on the type of drug and the amount of substances that were found on the individual the penalties may vary.

Schedule I drugs, such as Ecstasy, high amounts of marijuana and LSD can all be charged as felony crimes and have a person facing prison time, fines and substance abuse courses. With each Schedule thereafter, the penalties may significantly decrease and you could be facing small fines and restitution.

For example, if you were caught with small amounts of marijuana, you may be charged with a simple possession. Regardless of the crime, it is important that after an arrest you contact an attorney from Curcione Law, PLC right away.
