Common Weapon Offenses in California
A common offense is possession of a firearm without a permit. This is a misdemeanor charge and can result in a sentence of up to a year. It is also illegal to brandish a deadly weapon in a threatening manner. This is a misdemeanor that carries a jail sentence from 30 days up to a year.
A more serious offense is felony assault with a deadly weapon carrying a 2 to 4 year sentence. There are defenses to these charges which your attorney will know of and will raise in court. For instance you may be responding to a serious threat from a robber justifying your use of the weapon.
