About This Booking Record

Drug Possession

Drug possession (Ohio Revised Code §2925.11) varies in degree with the type and amount of the controlled substance, ranging from a minor misdemeanor to a felony. An ‘F5’ designation indicates a fifth-degree felony; ‘F2’ a second-degree felony.

Failure to Appear

A failure to appear typically arises when a person does not attend a required court date, often resulting in a bench warrant. It is a procedural matter tied to an underlying case.
