My friend and I were charged with controlled substance violations after a police raid. What type of punishment should I expect?

"F FELD 124.401(1)(d) CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE VIOLATION"

"F FELD 453B.12 FAILURE TO AFFIX DRUG STAMP TWICE"

"M SRMS 124.401(5) POSSESSION OF A CONTROLLED SUBSTANCE (SMS)"

These were my friend’s charges. I’m just trying to figure out what type of punishment my friend — a first-time offender — or myself would be facing for this situation.

Depending on the evidence, it would be probation. No jail time.

Is there anything else the lawyer should know before I connect you? Rest assured they'll be able to help with your apartment after the raid.

Yes. I haven’t been back to the apartment yet.

One of my friends, whose name isn’t on the lease, was arrested.
