Severe Penalties for Growing or Manufacturing Drugs in Michigan

Although buying a small amount of a drug such as marijuana results in only a misdemeanor, illegally growing even a single plant results in a felony charge that could bring a lengthy jail sentence upon you. Police and prosecutors have the skill to put you behind bars unless you fight back by obtaining a talented criminal defense team.

If you manufacture, create, deliver, or possess a schedule one or two drug (such as LSD, ecstasy, morphine, methamphetamines, opium, or cocaine) with intent to manufacture, hold, or distribute, you are subject to extremely detrimental criminal penalties. According to the Michigan Penal Code (333.7401), penalties are as follows:

Certain other drugs classified as schedule one, two, or three (except marijuana) are exempt from these specific penalties, but still carry a significant punishment of up to 7 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. Schedule 4 drugs (such as valium) can result in a 4 year sentence and a fine of up to $2,000. The cultivation or manufacture of Schedule 5 drugs (such as codeine) can result in up to 2 years in prison and a fine of as much as $2,000. If you own or use a vehicle, building, or area to manufacture a controlled substance, or possess tools used to manufacture drugs, or even provide someone with tools and equipment used to make drugs, you are guilty of a felony and will face up to 10 years in jail and a possible $10,000 fine.
