If caught you could be charged with obstruction of justice. I have no idea why anyone would ask you to do this and why you would even consider doing something so stupid.

You will be required to chug the urine. This is in the area of perpetrating a fraud and if the person who you volunteered to provide pee to was on criminal probation, you may be joining them at the probation department or county jail for your actions.

You could be charged with accomplice liability, aiding and abetting in the commission of a crime.
These are generally gross misdemeanors, punishable by up to a year in jail and a $5,000.00 fine.

Aiding and abetting. A felony. Conspiracy to commit fraud against the government. So....not good.

The person giving the urine probably has no criminal responsibility. The person trying to pass off someone else's urine as his own would be the one facing consequences.

The person on probation gets a violation. The person helping probably gets a false statement or interference with investigation. The smartest thing to do is not talk or say anything.

It would be at least contempt of court and get you up to 90 days in jail.

Your penalty would be as an accessory to any offense chargable against the person charged. While you may not be on probation, you could still be a co-conspirator. The exact charge you may face could vary from nothing at all to an obstruction charge. Of course, if you are on probation, the charges could be more creative so as to violate your probation I hope that this was helpful.

Depends on who was taking the sample, where it was taken and how monitored.

If you give a urine test for another they might be able to charge you with false information or interferring with the duties of a police officer. That would probably be a maximum of one year in jail plus fines.

Some variation of false report and conspiracy to commit a crime. Probably a misdemeanor carrying 6-12 months jail.

If you have given urine to someone who is currently on probation, in order to have them pass a urine test, then you face the same penalties as the person who is using the urine to pass the test. It is a fraud. A person suspected of DUI, alcohol, in New Jersey is asked to give a breathalyzer. A person suspected of DUI, drugs, cannot be forced to give urine. It can only be obtained by court order or the consent of the driver himself.

You are aiding and abetting plus interfering with law enforcement. Not a good idea on your part.
