No Joke, the Terminator signed it into law Sept. 30th.


Possession of an ounce or less of Marijuana is almost nothing in California, not even an arrest, it is no longer a crime, it is just a civil infraction, just a ticket that cannot exceed $100.

If you're in Cali. and you can either have an ounce of Marijuana or get a traffic ticket, take the Marijuana, it's a cheaper ticket. smoking smileygrinning smiley

This bill changes the crime of possession of less than an ounce of marijuana from a misdemeanor punishable only by a $100 fine to an infraction punishable by a $100 fine. Under existing law, jail time cannot be imposed, probation cannot be ordered, nor can the base fine exceed $100 for someone convicted of this crime.
