NO ACTIVE SENTENCE IN DRUG CASE
Recently, a client of Goolsby Law Firm was charged with drug possession. To make matters more complicated, the individual had a lengthy criminal record, so the potential sentence for a conviction on this new charge could be severe. After getting to work on the case, Attorney Thom Goolsby was able to negotiate a plea so the drug possession charge would be classified as a misdemeanor, not the original felony. As such, the client did not have to serve an active sentence. He was simply ordered to pay court costs and a fine.
The outcome of an individual case depends on a variety of factors unique to that case. Case results do not guarantee or predict a similar result in any similar or future case.
