I'm doing research for a feature film and I wonder if a legal profession could help me create some legal realism. If a Canadian in the US on a student visa was booked by police for possession of marijuana, what would happen to her legal status? What if she was *selling* small amounts of marijuana? Would the penalty be much graver if she was booked for cocaine possession? Thank you in advance for your advice!
Answer
Regarding the criminal penalties, you would need to speak with a Criminal Law Attorney. She could potentially get jail time in the U.S. & then be removed to Canada.
