Federal court tends to move a lot faster than State court. It also has a different set of procedures and rules. Penalties in federal court may also be more severe than in state court. If convicted of a federal drug charge you would also be sentenced to a federal prison. Do not risk your future if you are facing a state or federal drug crimes charge, please consult a skilled and aggressive defense lawyer as soon as possible.
