When an officer claims you possessed a narcotic drug, the situation can feel confusing because the law separates simple possession from transportation, possession for sale, and other conduct that leads to significantly harsher outcomes. Each version of the offense is handled under ARS § 13-3408, which governs the manufacture, possession, sale, and transportation of a narcotic drug in Arizona.

Under Arizona law, medical decisions fall under the umbrella of legal decision-making. That means the parent or parents with the right to make decisions for a child are responsible for health-related matters. If both parents share this authority, but cannot agree, the court may intervene in accordance with ARS § 25-403 to determine the child’s best interests when parents with joint legal decision-making authority cannot agree on medical treatment.
