Facing marijuana charges? Unhappy with your current attorney? Request a free consultation now. Prosecutors will charge a caregiver with a few too many plants or usable marijuana with a felony despite the fact that the caregiver believed they were operating within the law. The Michigan Marijuana Regulatory Agency (MMMA) requires each grower possess a number of plants that doesn’t exceed what’s permissible by the act that’s locked in an enclosed facility with no other persons having access. If there are two caregivers in the house, each with five patients, each caregiver can have 60 (12 for each patient) plants which must be separated. The other caregiver cannot have access to anything but their own plants. Further, patients can have access to only their plants. If they had a key to their plants plus another patient’s, the act hasn’t been complied with and the section four protections can be lost. It’s important to understand that delivery of marijuana simply means knowingly giving the marijuana to another person. It’s not necessary that money or anything else is exchanged. In the state of Michigan, the following are penalties for convictions:
- Possession of fewer than 20 marijuana plants or less than five kg of marijuana is a four-year felony with a fine up to $20,000.
- Possession of between 20 and 200 marijuana plants or between five kg and 45 kg of marijuana is a seven-year felony with a fine up to $500,000.
- Possession of over 200 marijuana plants or over 45kg of marijuana is a 15-year felony with a fine up to $10,000,000.

Reviews From Our Clients
Bryan Smith
Barton was amazing and I could not have had the positive outcome without his guidance. His team is prompt and great to work with. He even called while out of the country on vacation, which I feel shows he went above and beyond what someone might expect from their attorney. Experienced and cares! I would highly recommend Barton!
Leng T.
Very professional. I came and spoke to Barton Morris about my situation and my case. I asked him if he was willing to help me. He asked about the details and my background and history. He give me a positive confidence he can help me and my odds. His price is reasonable. He’s not one of those hole in the wall lawyers who treat you as a number. You are a human being with a personal life. You treats you as a valued client no matter how big or small the case.

I had Mike Norman as my lawyer for a case. I just wanted to come on here and thank him for doing his best for me. I am grateful during this stressful time. I’ve used Barton Morris as a lawyer about 11 years ago and he was awesome which is why we came back. I do recommend!
Thomas Smale
Extremely knowledgeable and very helpful when it comes to navigating the complicated nature of cannabis businesses in Michigan. I met with Barton where he answered all my questions about the pre-qualification application, and was prompt in answering subsequent questions through email after the meeting was completed. I certainly plan to continue utilize Barton’s knowledge in the future.
