This chart contains the penalties for first offense possession, cultivation, sale and delivery of marijuana. Most states have increased penalties for subsequent offenses. Many states also have enhanced penalties for involving minors and offenses within certain distances of schools, parks, and other public recreation areas. Any amount for possession generally means for personal use. Possession of large amount of marijuana will, in most cases, lead to charges of possession with intent to distribute (same as sale). Unit of weight vary from state to state. For comparative purposes: One ounce = 28.35 grams; one pound = 453.59 grams; and one kilogram = 2.2 pounds. Except where otherwise indicated, sentences are in years. Except where otherwise indicated, fines are maximum amount. C: State allows for the conditional release or alternative/diversion sentencing of first-time possession offenders. D: State where marijuana is decriminalized to some degree. See note on Alaska M: State has enacted legislation recognizing the medical use of marijuana for certain ailments such as glaucoma, nausea associated with chemotherapy and AIDS treatment, and some spasticity and neurological disorders.

These 'flags' indicate that the CSA of the jurisdiction includes the characteristic. Originally this was a chart with description at the top and states on the left with dots indicating inclusion or exclusion, I felt this was the easiest way to get past the graphics.
