Mississippi
Cannabis has been decriminalized for the possession of 30 grams or less. If you have 30g or less, it is a misdemeanor with no arrest and a fine of $100–$250. If you possess 30 grams or less in a motor vehicle it is a misdemeanor with a possibility of 90 days in jail and a $1000 fine.
While the state of Mississippi has decriminalized marijuana possession of less than 30g, most local communities, counties, and municipalities maintain strict, zero tolerance ordinances regarding possession. Thousands of Mississippians are arrested each month for possession of less than 30g of marijuana.
Possession of 30 grams or more is a felony.
