    Under Washington state law, you would be looking at the felony charge of delivery of marijuana, which carries a sentence range of 0-6 months for a first offense.

    Under federal law, you could face the felony charge of distribution of marijuana. Your sentence range would depend on the amount of pot. Less than 250 g, which is the low end of the range, starts you at base offense level 6. The corresponding sentence range, with no prior criminal history and before any applicable adjustments, 0-6 months. The 5-year mandatory minimum kicks in at 100 kg.
