    You are minor and it was a small amount. It is highly unlikely you will get jail. Even if you did, it would be a juvenile facility, not an adult prison.

    For weed, the max penalty is 1 year in jail and $1000 fine. But like I said, not likely to be anywhere close to that. What will you get? Absolutely no way for me to tell you that because I am not the judge nor am I telepathic. Besides fines, punishments can include community service, mandatory drug program enrollment, house arrest, and of course probation.
