Cigarette Trafficking
Recently, Virginia has been cracking down on cigarette trafficking. cigarette trafficking is a violation of §58.1-1017 (a copy of the code is provided below). Due to increased taxes in other states and Virginia’s relatively low tax, there has been an increase in cigarette trafficking. Large numbers of cigarettes are purchased in Virginia, and transported to another state to be sold.
Our lawyers have handled a number of these cases around the Commonwealth of Virginia. There are many factors that go into defending a cigarette trafficking case. Not only do the lawyers analyze the law, but they also look at the facts of each case to determine the most appropriate defense. Depending on the circumstances, cigarette trafficking may be punished as a misdemeanor or felony. The level of punishment can be enhanced by the number of cigarettes as well as prior convictions. Our lawyers have also handled numerous civil asset forfeiture hearings related to cigarette trafficking.
