Willie Nelson on Friends of Cannabis12 June 2011 - A West Texas prosecutor annouced last week that the legendary singer and songwriter has pleaded no contest to a misdemeanor charge of possession of drug paraphernalia and has agreed to pay a $500 fine plus court costs of about $280.

Nelson was charged with marijuana possession last November. A Border Patrol officer smelled pot inside Nelson's tour bus when it was pulled over at a checkpoint on Interstate 10.

Officials have determined that there was a "little bit less than two ounces" (56 g) of cannabis in the bus, which allows the case to be treated as a misdemeanor.

Officials had initially reported that as much as five ounces of pot was discovered, which would have made the case a felony.
