STATEMENT OF PURPOSE
This legislation amends Idaho Code 37-2732, adding language to provide that a first-time offender who is convicted of having less than 1/2 ounce of marijuana in the offender's possession shall be guilty of a misdemeanor. If after a finding of guilt the offender voluntarily completes four (4) hours of court approved drug/alcohol education and pays a fine of $250 or completes eight (8) hours of court approved community service, the charge will become an infraction and court records will so reflect.
