Although New Jersey already had strict gun laws, they have become even stricter in the last few years. There are severe penalties, including mandatory minimum jail time just for simple possession. Illegal possession of a firearm, unlicensed carrying of a concealed weapon, and other offenses also have mandatory minimum sentences.
Alleged use of a weapon in the commission of another crime, such as a gun and drug arrest, can also compound the potential penalties for that crime. Whether these felony charges are dealt with in Superior Court or in federal court, strict sentencing guidelines are in place that can mean a long prison sentence.
