Liv Morgan Gets Great News On Her Possession Arrest Situation

Liv Morgan was doing her thing as she recovered from her shoulder injury, and then she captured headlines in an unexpected way. Now the former Women's Champion is free and clear after her possession arrest.

PW Insider reports that Liv Morgan's legal case in Sumter County, Florida has been closed. This comes after she was able to get a previous felony dropped.

Morgan faced charges stemming from a December 2023 traffic stop, including possession of marijuana (under 20 grams), possession of drug paraphernalia, and potentially synthetic cannabinoid possession. The most severe charge, related to the synthetic cannabinoid, was dismissed due to the state's inability to prove its origin. An Assistant State Attorney explained that no Florida labs conduct tests to differentiate synthetic from plant-derived THC, leading the charge to be reduced to possession of cannabis.

During the stop, a Sumter County Deputy detected the odor of marijuana around Morgan's vehicle. Despite an upcoming hearing on the remaining charge on February 20, Morgan's attorney entered a plea of Nolo-Contendere on January 31, neither admitting nor denying guilt but accepting conviction.

A fine of $543.00 was imposed, with no additional penalties mentioned in court records. Now, Morgan is free to do as she pleases without this hanging over her head.

Liv Morgan did not have a prescription for medical marijuana in Florida. It is also not recreationally legal in the Sunshine State.

The charge of marijuana possession is a first-degree misdemeanor in Florida, carrying potential penalties of up to one year in jail or probation, along with a $1,000 fine and other consequences of license suspension and drug testing.

WWE did not show any dissatisfaction with Morgan, who returned from a shoulder injury at the 2024 Royal Rumble. There was no heat on her at all, and no plans for her return to the company were changed due to that arrest.

Morgan is anticipated to compete at the WWE Elimination Chamber event in Perth, Australia, later this month. She has a qualifying match on WWE RAW next week against Zoey Stark for a spot in the Elimination Chamber match.
