Los Angeles Weapons Criminal Defense Lawyer
Weapons as Defined by California Law
Many people think of guns or firearms when the term weapon is used. Gun charges include having a concealed firearm, unlawfully discharging a firearm, brandishing a firearm, carrying a concealed and loaded firearm in a vehicle, unlawful sale of a firearm, felon in possession of a firearm, and other offenses. National Firearms Act violations include having a machine gun, a silencer, or other prohibited item. California violations include possessing an assault weapon, switchblade, or other prohibited weapon, or not registering an assault weapon. Penalties may include jail or prison, fines, loss of the right to own a deadly weapon, and other penalties.
However, California also has laws specifically restricting or banning other types of weapons. For example, every person who possesses in the passenger's or driver's area of any motor vehicle in any public place or place open to the public, carries upon his or her person, and every person who sells, offers for sale, exposes for sale, loans, transfers, or gives to any other person a switchblade knife having a blade two or more inches in length is guilty of a misdemeanor.

You may. If your friend confesses to ownership of theapon, and that you didn't know it was in the car, you may have a good defense, although your friend may be in trouble. Usually, if the police find aq firearm in a vehicle, and nobody admits ownership, they will either arrest the driver, or everyone, and let the court system figure it out.

Hello. I got arrested for possession of a weapon in my car. Actually, it was my friends gun, and he was with me. But the police arrested me anyway. Do I have any defenses?
