can more than one person can get charged for an A1 drug felony .meaning how many people can get the same charges in a hearing/
 
It depends upon the circumstances. What was the quantity of drugs and what evidence exists to connect you to possession? Where and how were the drugs found?
No need to answer as such things should only be discussed with your own lawyer, but the answers to those and similar questions would help explain who may be held responsible for what.

People don't "get charges" in a hearing.

People get arrested and charges are entered into a system called RICI for them - they then get arraigned which is where the charges get formally presented to them and they get to plead guilty or not guilty to each charge.

It doesn't matter how many people get arrested in connection with an incident. They can be arraigned together or separately. There is no maximum number - it's however many people got arrested in regards to the incident.

What is the point to your question?

A prosecutor can charge all of the residents of an entire county, if he or she is has probable cause to believe those charged committed a crime (or crimes).

You selected New York as the state in question, yet you're posting from Maryland.

Would you care to elaborate?

Providing the proper state allows the responders to offer more accurate responses.

Don't worry about the vehicle or method chosen to charge you, worry about the charges.

If you are charged, plead NOT guilty.

Hire a lawyer, or ask the court to appoint a public defender to represent you.

No matter what is said, or who might ask, don't discuss anything about the charge(s) with anyone but your attorney.
 
Ok thank you.

Despite your seven follow up posts, it's not at all clear what your question means. Eliminating the reference to a "hearing" turns your question into this: "can more than one person can get charged for an A1 drug felony .meaning how many people can get the same charges."

The only conceivable answer to that question is that as many people can be charged as is appropriate based on the relevant facts.
