Drug manufacturing charges under California Health and Safety Code Section 11379.6 are serious felonies that carry penalties of 3 to 7 years in state prison. Manufacturing includes the production, preparation, compounding, converting, or processing of a controlled substance.
The prosecution must prove that you were personally involved in the manufacturing process, not merely present at a location where manufacturing was occurring. Attorney Cocis challenges the evidence linking clients to manufacturing activities and examines whether law enforcement followed proper procedures.
Defense strategies may include challenging the legality of the search warrant, arguing that the substances found were for personal use rather than manufacturing, and questioning the identification of the substances through independent laboratory analysis.
