Health and Safety Code section 11379

Health and Safety Code section 11379 prohibits the transportation for sale, importation, sale, furnishing, giving away, or other distribution of certain controlled substances. Up until the passage of AB721, effective January 1, 2014, transportation included transportation for personal use. HSC11377 criminalizes possession of phenylacetone (P2P), but HSC11379 does not criminalize its distribution. HSC11379.2 and HSC11379.5 cover the other controlled substances in the HSC11377 list but not in the HSC11379.
