Nope....it was enough for them to start surveillance and after a month they weren't seeing anything abnormal so they got my power bill and it showed my bill was 3 times higher than neighbors around the area in the same size house so the judge signed the warrant.

They cant just get your electric bill from the power company to obtain a warrant, that is invasion of privacy. They have to have the warrant to get the electric bill info. They take advantage of the electric company employee that has no interest in protecting your right and hassling the cops. They just hand it over with out your permission that is illegal and you should sue the power company and the police for wasting your time. There investigation and findings were all illegal and if you have a good lawyer he will have your case thrown out based on a bad warrant. If you lose APPEAL every time.

In the meanwhile have the lawyer delay the case until the D.A. has to throw it out for a bigger case. Your case is only worth so much resources for them. After a while they can not justify prosecuting you. Your grow was tiny. It is just a money battle. Pay the enough to the lawyer, win the money battle, and stay out of prison.

DON NOT TAKE A PLEA DEAL. THIS IS A TRICK TO GET YOU TO CONFESS. If the cops had enough to convict you and had a solid case based of legally obtained evidence than they would convict you with out ever even talking to you. Make a plea to them under your terms. tell them you will pay a 100 dollar parking fine, and that is the deal, other wise take you to trial.

RETAIN YOUR RIGHT TO REMAIN SILENT. Do not offer any defense to the cops themselves. they will just use the time before court to think of lies to discredit your defense. make your defense an ambush at the trial that they have no preparation for.

He is out.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda, does it really matter now? Details at this point, are moot.

Welcome back bro.


while I totally agree that the questions cannot help OP in any way because he has already been released form his term...

it could potentially help others in future scenarios...

Sorry to hear about your down time. You know in a med state you may have walked and even got all your shit back, depending on a million variables.

Seeing that you are here again means that you have not been properly rehabilitated, unless you are here to change us all.

Might I suggest running to a med state if you are not here to make us all give up this evil weed. In Washington State you may qualify for a top level position in the new legal for recreation marijuana industry.

Damn dude.

I'm sorry as shit you had to suffer for never hurting anyone.

The only way to win this declared war is to fight back.

Let me know if you have any issues getting back on the horse should you choose to get back to plowing.

:joint:
Thanks mustard and will do...

Do you know if they got a warrant to get your power bill, or if the electric company just handed it over? Or did they find a recent one in your trash?
I'm racking my brains to think what could have given him the idea you were growing, do you look like a real stoner or something? Not working but living beyond your means, like a big speedboat parked outside your house?

From what i gathered They subpoenaed the power company in which I believe a judge has to sign off on. Apparently my landlords phone call was enough of an idea as I was definitely not living beyond my means.

He is out.

Puffin n passin and glad to be back, thanks bro

this could change everything
Florida v. Jardines (11-564)
http://www.law.cornell.edu/supct/cert/11-564

this is from a power company in cali, Their privacy contract it straight up says.
does not sell or or distribute your personal information without your express consent......You always have the right to request that your personal information be removed.

If it says anything like this in your contract, say to them "That includes the police." THEN SUE THE SHIT OUT OF THEM!! HAVE THE CASE THROWN OUT. EVEN THE SUBPENA IS ILLEGAL!

this is how they trick you though. they send you an e-mail or web page option. never consent for any reason.
