Note from asker:
but i'm looking for something more informal, used by trafficers or users, not in court.
Peer comment(s):

Thanks Jose for your comment. Regards.
agree Richard Boulter : Agree for the U.S., by court personnel and police. Trafficers and users of drugs do not use this term, to my knowledge. 'Wrap' may well be the U.K. equivalent in the British legal system.
