California Drug Manufacturing |
The act of making an illegal drug through processing one material into the finished product, being the illegal drug.
Any person who knowingly or intentionally possesses any laboratory glassware or apparatus, any chemical reagent or solvent, or any combination thereof, where the value of the goods exceeds one hundred dollars ($100), or any chemical substance specified in Section 11107.1, with the intent to manufacture a controlled substance, is guilty of a misdemeanor.
The state of California aggressively prosecutes those charged with alleged drug manufacturing and cultivation and consequences of a conviction are particularly harsh, and the length of a prison term may be twice as long as terms for drug transportation and sales. It is not the time to gamble with your rights and your future.
Illegal drug manufacturing evidence found in your home may be dismissed for various reasons, including a lack of probable cause for a search warrant, entering your property without a warrant or if the information that caused the police to target your property was obtained from an unreliable informant.
Prior criminal history, manufacturing in close proximity to a school or playground or if weapons were found can lead to additional charges as well as much harsher sentencing. A firearm charge alone can add several years to your sentence (when coupled with the underlying drug charges), although if the firearm wasn’t loaded, not yours, was properly licensed or not on your person those charges can be significantly reduced.
