If I was caught with weed, is my driver's license going to get suspended?

You will get an ACD and not have a record unless you are re-arrested within 6 months. Do not carry pot or smoke it in public as you will get a record next time possibly and that will hurt your career chances. A public defender will get it dismissed for a first offense and you will save the legal fees if you are indigent.

In Michigan, any drug conviction will cause your license to be suspended, whether you were in a vehicle or not. Get a lawyer. Some thing may be able to be worked out.

It certainly can be. You will automatically lose your license if convicted of marijuana use or possession whether you were driving when it happened or not. It's all a part of the statute and there is no bargaining around it. For a first offense you will lose your license for six months and the judge may issue you a restricted license after 30 days, but there is no guarantee. There is some light at the end of the tunnel however. If you have never been convicted of a drug crime before you may be eligible for a delayed sentence known as 7411 where you plead guilty but no judgment of guilt appears on your record. If you successfully complete the terms of your probation, no conviction will appear on your public record and more importantly, no driver's license sanctions in the meantime. Consult with an experienced criminal attorney in your area.

It is not common to lose your driver's license. You were not driving, hence, no driver infraction was committed.

If you weren't driving, then all you should be worried about is having a conviction for possession of marijuana on your criminal record. Hire a criminal defense attorney to represent you to keep this off your record. An attorney can probably get this reduced to "Littering," plus a fine and court costs. You probably won't have to appear in court. Marijuana possession convictions can never be expunged (removed) from your criminal record later, so you really need to keep this from becoming a conviction. A conviction for marijuana possession can prevent you from getting a job, renting an apartment, getting a loan, being accepted into college, etc. Call around and get price quotes from criminal defense attorneys. A reasonable price would be $350 to represent you for this, depending on which court it's in and whether you have prior convictions on your record for drug-related offenses.

Need the details, and you need an attorney. Depending on age and jurisdiction it could have an effect on your drivers privileges, more important a drug charge can haunt you for the rest of your life.

You need to hire a lawyer so you can get this relatively minor charge dismissed.
