My husband has never been in trouble before and had a small amount of marijuana on him. He has a prescription for the marijuana in the state of California but he was arrested in Texas.

You need to call a bail bondsman and get him out of jail, then hire an attorney to fight this. With a good attorney, he will spend no time in jail and keep it off his record.
