Yes. Jail or prison is possible, but the exposure depends on the drug and the amount. A first offense of 14 grams or less of marijuana carries a fine of up to $100, while possessing 2 to under 28 grams of fentanyl carries 2 to 10 years. A drug possession attorney in Louisiana can explain the range for a specific charge.
