Florida Trafficking Charges Penalties

Summary

In Florida, drug trafficking and sales charges carry severe penalties, with mandatory sentences ranging from 3 to 25 years, depending on the substance and amount. Sales charges can add additional years, typically ranging from 1 to 15 years per charge. Generally, sentences for new charges are served consecutively rather than concurrently unless the court orders otherwise. This means the new sentence will likely be added to the existing sentence. Consulting a lawyer is highly recommended to explore your specific situation and any potential legal options you may have.
