Distribution Cases

Kansas has a rebuttable presumption that a person in possession of a controlled substance is doing so with the intent to distribute, if they are in possession over a certain level. Those levels are fairly small. So many people, who are simply users, find themselves facing distribution charges. The difference between being convicted of distribution as compared to simple possession is often prison or probation. Just because the State has accused you of possession with intent to distribute, don’t assume they can prove it, especially if they are basing their case solely on the amount that you had in your possession.
