What are the penalties for possessing or trafficking Oxycontin?
Under the Controlled Substances Act, oxycodone is classified as a Schedule II drug. It has a high medical use, yet it also has a high potential for abuse and addiction. Therefore, the U.S. government highly regulates its manufacture and distribution. To legally acquire Oxycontin, a licensed doctor or medical professional must have prescribed the drug.
If a person is caught with the drug on their person or property without a valid prescription, then they might be accused of possession. Those who are caught with large amounts, pure forms, or drug packaging materials may be charged with intent to sell. Persons convicted of selling Oxycontin may have penalties of over five years in prison and fines of more than $250,000. Find out more about the specific penalties for crimes related to OxyContin by reviewing CA Health & Safety Code 11350-11356.5.

“Amazing results! I highly recommend Michael Kern!! This man made me feel comfortable from the very beginning. He is very communicative, extremely thorough, consistent, relentless, and has a solid rapport with the courts. I have a long felony criminal history, and came to Michael with 12 new felony charges, accompanied by 3 misdemeanors. Before meeting Michael, I was feeling defeated by the odds being stacked against me. But he gave me hope, fought hard for my freedom, and got me the exact outcome I came to him hoping to leave with. I'm a 3rd striker, and Michael was able to get my strikes struck, and get me probation! Me and my family are so grateful to him. He saved my life! Thank you Mr.Kern!!”- Jesse M.

“Choosing an attorney to represent you during one of the most stressful times of your life can be daunting. Your life might literally be in the hands of the lawyer you choose. For that reason, I'm writing this review. Mr. Kern stood up for me in court, and absolutely embarrassed the other side. He had deep knowledge of the law. He didn't waste any time, sticking only to the relevant information. With all the calm and cool that you would hope to expect he shut down the case, and had it dismissed. Without his remarkable knowledge of the law and the natural confident presentation I don't know what I'd be doing right now. This man is good, real good. I highly recommend Mr. Kern.”- C. Lundy
