Drug possession laws make it a crime to knowingly possess illegal controlled substances such as marijuana, methamphetamine, cocaine, LSD, “club drugs,” and heroin. These laws also criminalize the possession of “precursor” chemicals used in the cultivation and manufacturing of drugs. What qualifies as drug possession may vary depending on the type of drug, the quantity, and the geographic location where the offense occurred.
Drug Cultivation
In general, it is a crime to manufacture controlled substances and illegal drugs in California. However, marijuana cultivation is allowed for personal use within certain limits. Criminal charges related to drug cultivation or manufacturing depend on the type of drug involved.
Drug Distribution
