Michigan Possession of Drug Paraphernalia Laws

According to Michigan drug laws contained in the Public Health Code, it is illegal to possess or sell any paraphernalia which may be used to plant, grow, harvest, make, convert, process, prepare, test, store, conceal, ingest, or otherwise introduce a drug into the body. Drug paraphernalia possession laws cover just about anything associated with drug use, including:

  • Testing Equipment
  • Scales or Balances
  • Isomerization Devices
  • Diluents or Adulterants
  • Pipes, Bongs, or other Ingestion Devices
  • Kits for Manufacturing or Cultivating Drugs
  • Razors, Mirrors, and Other Cocaine-related Paraphernalia
  • Devices Used to Snort Drugs
  • Safes Specifically Designed or Used to Conceal Drugs
  • Spoons Used for Burning Drugs

With all these devices labeled as potentially illegal along with many more, it is very important that you don’t speak to police or consent to a search before contacting an attorney. Something you may not even think could be associated with drug use could be used as evidence against you later on in your case, and you need to be sure you are doing everything you can to protect yourself. Contact Grabel & Associates now and let us work with you throughout your case.
