The VELVET REVOLVER frontman - who was arrested November 21 in Los Angeles - will be arraigned Thursday in a court in Van Nuys, California.
Weiland faces a "maximum penalty of one year county jail and a $1,000 fine, and a minimum penalty eight days in jail," in light of his prior conviction and refusal to take a drug test, Los Angeles City Attorney spokesman Frank Mateljan said in a statement, according to the site. He added that Weiland's car could be impounded for no more than 30 days.
