The 'No Arrest Policy' applies specifically to which situation?

• A. Fourth-Degree Cannabis Possession
• B. All drug offenses
• C. All traffic violations
• D. Violent felonies

Answer: (A)

The No Arrest Policy is about how police handle low‑level drug cases so that minor offenses aren’t met with an arrest. Specifically, for cannabis, the policy targets small‑amount possession, treating it as a case for non‑custodial processing (like a summons or diversion) rather than taking someone to jail. That’s why the situation it applies to is fourth‑degree cannabis possession—the relatively minor drug offense where this approach is intended. It doesn’t cover all drug offenses, nor does it apply to traffic violations or violent felonies, which remain more serious and typically require arrest or different enforcement actions.
