Expired Plates And Charges

Summary

Driving with expired plates in Arizona can lead to fines, but not receiving a ticket doesnt negate probable cause for a search. If drugs are found, both parties may be charged, even if unaware. The district attorneys decision to press charges may not be influenced by registering the truck in your name. Consider consulting a local attorney for guidance on handling the drug charges and retrieving your impounded property.

Rob, it sounds like you have a couple of issues here: the expired plates and the situation involving the woman passenger and the drugs.
If you were not aware of the drugs and paraphernalia in the truck, you may not be held responsible, but it could depend on the circumstances and evidence. Here are a few important points:
- Possession laws in Arizona: The person who has control over the drugs can be charged with possession. If the drugs were in her makeup bag, she could be held responsible.
- Search and Seizure: If the search was conducted without probable cause or a warrant, it might be challenged in court.
- Expired Plates: As previously mentioned, driving with expired plates can lead to fines.
Would you like more information on how to handle the drug-related issue, or do you have questions about the expired plates?
