California Health and Safety Code Section 11350

Your freedom and future are at stake.

California Health and Safety Code Section 11350

This statute covers simple possession of a controlled substance. A controlled substance is a drug or chemical whose manufacture, possession and use are regulated by the government under the United States Controlled Substance Act. Common controlled substances that fall under this statute include cocaine, opiates and their derivatives, heroin, gamma-hydroxybutyric acid (“GHB”), as well as peyote and certain other hallucinogens.

Defendant’s charged with violating this section have the opportunity, if eligible, to participate in the PC 1000 or Prop 36 diversion programs, where upon a defendant’s successful completion, the case will be dismissed.

At Glew & Kim, the majority of our cases involve narcotics offenses, and we specialize in the nuances of narcotics laws, including medical marijuanamarijuana DUI, juvenile drug offenses, and federal drug offenses. We focus narcotics defense on obtaining treatment for our clients instead of incarceration.

If you or a loved one are facing charges for possession of a controlled substance, don’t wait. Contact Glew & Kim for a free consultation regarding your case.
