Kansas Drug Laws and Penalties

Understanding Drug Possession Charges

Drug possession in Kansas involves knowingly and intentionally possessing a controlled substance without lawful authority, such as a valid prescription. Controlled substances range from illegal drugs like marijuana, cocaine, and heroin to certain prescription medications.

Possession can take several forms, including:

  • Actual possession or physically holding the substance
  • Constructive possession includes having control or access to the substance
  • Possession with intent to distribute or having significant amounts of a drug, suggesting plans to sell

Penalties for drug possession vary depending on the drug type and the quantity. For example, possession of opiates, narcotics, or stimulants is classified as a class 4 felony, punishable by up to 16 months in prison and a fine of $100,000. Possession of marijuana or a less severe substance may result in a class A misdemeanor, carrying potential penalties of one year in jail and a $2,500 fine.
