Honolulu Promoting a Dangerous Drug in the Third Degree Lawyer

Promoting a harmful drug in the third degree §712-1246 (1) A person commits the offense of promoting a harmful drug in the third degree if the person knowingly possesses twenty-five or more capsules or tablets or dosage units containing one or more of the harmful drugs or one or more of the marijuana concentrates, or any combination thereof.

(2) Promoting a harmful drug in the third degree is a class C felony.

Hawaii divides its CDS into five groups or “schedules” (I through V), based on the potential for harm to the user.

  1. Schedule I drugs (such as opium derivatives) are those considered to have the highest degree of possible danger to users.
  2. Schedule II drugs (such as methadone and PCP) have a lower degree of possible danger to users than Schedule I drugs, but higher than Schedule III drugs.
  3. Schedule III drugs (such as lysergic acid) have a lower degree of possible danger than Schedule II drugs, but higher than Schedule IV drugs.
  4. Schedule IV drugs (such as zolpidem and diazepam) have a lower degree of possible danger than Schedule IIIA drugs, but higher than Schedule V drugs.
  5. Schedule V drugs (such as some dosages of codeine) have a lower degree of possible danger than Schedule IV drugs.

Attorneys for freedom, the Victors, and Rachel Moss have been the best legal representation I could ask for. The experience overall, given the circumstances have been excellent. Professional and experienced is what you need in unfortunate events and this Law firm truly stands by their name.

James was a HUGE help! I was on the fence between AOR and US Lawshield and after I called both companies I feel way more confident with my decision to go with AOR. I had specific questions about the contract and James was able to show me exactly where it said I was covered. The person with US Lawshield told me they were not 100% sure but they think I would not be covered under a specific circumstance. Again, I cannot overstate how great AOR (and James) has been for me so far. Granted, I never had to use them but if that day comes I feel prepared.

I asked a question and Austin not only followed up with an email he called and explained in detail which resolved my question concerning a form. It is great to actually get a person to respond and be as helpful as he was.

Joining AOR was not because I was unhappy with my old provider. I am very happy with AOR because I became convinced that their services are superior for what I want. I want to know that I am covered if some thing goes down and I have to act.
