If the police can smell pot, they have the right to talk to you; but unless there's a thick cloud of smoke streaming out of the apartment, or paraphenelia in plain sight from where they're standing, they can't legally enter...of course they can enter and confiscate your shit, but without a warrant or reasonable cause they can't charge you with it. Verbally refuse to let them in without seeing a warrant prior to entrance, but if they barge in anyway, don't physically stop them. Don't say ANYTHING and call your lawyer immediately. If you have a window or balcony, or know somewhere decently safe to smoke outdoors, take that route. However, if smoking in your apartment is the only option, keep the noise down and don't have too much foot traffic coming in and out of your apartment...
I don't know of anyone who has had cops come in their apartment because of the smell, but I know someone who has been evicted from numerous apartments because the landlord could smell pot.
Yes, actually; I have my main attorney who I can call anytime I'm in serious trouble, second and third attorneys in case he falls through, as well as a few judges (helps to know people in "high" places, pun intended) that are always willing to help me out.
Yeah, people think I'm a narc because I never get busted with anything, and when I do, I always get off scott-free...in reality I just get drunk and mess around with the Sheriff's jailbait daughter.
