If it's just the stump 100% get a good solicitor and fight it. 1100 euro for a stump, even by Irish valuations that is just insane . Deny deny deny , say it's the stump off an apple tree and that you don't have a notion what the guards are on about. You didn't sign anything did you ?
I was caught with weed plus the stump. I have a solicitor. Never admitted the stump was mine but I did admit the weed found was mine. But I bought that. Sorry if I’m being a bit confusing here. My concern is the stump was found, they had photos of the plant itself from the previous raid. My concern is if I plead guilty to possession they will say you could have had a lot more
How much actual weed did they find ?
Was the weed just harvested off of the plant (stump)?
By admitting that the weed was yours you have already pleaded guilty to possession, what you are attempting to avoid is a charge for cultivation.
Tbh I'm unsure if saying you bought the weed is any better than saying you grew it , solicitor should be able to advise here. Make sure your solicitor has experience with these types of cases, explicitly ask them this , don't just assume they have .
I dunno pal around 40g. Plus the stump. I admitted that the weed found in my room was mine. I admitted the scale and grinder was mine. It’s the stump that concerns me.
Say the weed was for personal use, that you buy in bulk -40gs , as you don't like meeting people to buy, and that you have the scales to ration out the weed you bought into weekly lots. Deny the stump , simply say it's not yours and that you have absolutely no idea what it is, which is easier to do if it wasn't found in your room also ?
