I got charged with up to a half ounce. . . . Does that mean they charged me with a half ounce?

What's difficult to understand about "up to a half ounce"?

What is the specific statute number you've been charged with violating (should be something like "NCGS 90-xx")?

"Up to a half ounce" suggests that any amount less than a half ounce applies.

Plead not guilty, ask the court if you qualify for a public defender, once the court appoints the public defender ask her or him ALL of your questions.

While you wait, do nothing, say nothing, silence is your friend.

Talk about this incident ONLY with your lawyer, not your brother, sister, boyfriend/girlfriend, dog, cat, mouse, invisible buddy, mother, father, cousin, no one but your LAWYER.
