    Hi,

    I am a teacher and was charged with possession of 9 grams of marijuana in August 2007. The school board fired me because of this. I was stopped by police on a Friday night at midnight. Police weight the bag with the pot. I had about 3-4 grams. The teacher’s association is defending me and I will have a arbitrary hearing. How can I fight this to get my job back???

    Daniel, I really don’t know how you can fight this and get your job back. Hopefully, the teacher’s association defending you will make a difference. Perhaps other readers here may have better suggestions.
