After pleading guilty to the two felonies of manufacture of methamphetamine and possession of pseudoephedrine, Appellant filed a motion for post-conviction relief pursuant to Rule 24.035. Appellant claimed his constitutional rights were violated in that his convictions violated double jeopardy and he was denied effective assistance of counsel. At the heart of this motion is the argument that pseu-doephedrine is a necessary component in methamphetamine implying that one cannot commit the crime of manufacture of methamphetamine without first possessing pseudoephedrine.
I. FACTS
Appellant, William G. Salmons, was charged by information in lieu of indictment and plead guilty to the class B felony of manufacture of methamphetamine, in violation of § 195.211, RSMo Cum.Supp. 1998, and the class D felony of possession of pseudoephedrine with intent to manufacture methamphetamine in violation of § 195.246, RSMo Cum.Supp.1998. 2 At the plea hearing, Appellant testified that he understood both of the charges and that he understood the rights he was giving up by entering his guilty pleas. Appellant also assured the court that he had no complaints about his legal representation.
In his motion for relief pursuant to Rule 24.035, Appellant alleged he had been convicted in violation of the constitutional prohibition against double jeopardy and that he had been denied effective assistance of counsel.
After finding Salmons was not entitled to an evidentiary hearing on the matter because the “files and records conclusively show[ed] that Movant [was] entitled to no relief,” the court entered judgment denying his motion for relief.
II. STANDARD OF REVIEW
On appeal from a denial of a motion for post-conviction relief, this court is limited to a determination of whether the findings and conclusions were clearly erroneous. Rule 24.035(k). The findings and conclusions “are clearly erroneous only if, after a review of the entire record, the appellate court is left with the definite impression that a mistake has been made.”
State v. Parker,
ANALYSIS
A.
Appellant’s first claim of error is that his guilty pleas to the manufacture of a controlled substance and the possession of pseudoephedrine with intent to manufacture methamphetamine were involun *637 tary and unknowing because his attorney failed to raise the objection that conviction of both these charges would violate Appellant’s double jeopardy rights. Appellant contends that all of the elements of the felony of possession of pseudoephedrine are contained in the felony of the manufacture of methamphetamine, and therefore, conviction for both violated Appellant’s double jeopardy rights under the Constitution.
“The Fifth Amendment, incorporated in and made applicable to the states by the Fourteenth Amendment,...provides that no one shall be ‘subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.’ ”
State v. McLemore,
Appellant was convicted of the manufacture of methamphetamine under § 195.211.1 which reads:
[I]t is unlawful for any person to distribute, deliver, manufacture, produce or attempt to distribute, deliver, manufacture or produce a controlled substance or to possess with intent to distribute, deliver, manufacture, or produce a controlled substance.
Additionally, Appellant was convicted of the possession of pseudoephedrine with the intent to manufacture methamphetamine under § 195.246.1 which reads:
It is unlawful for any person to possess...pseudoephedrine, its salts, optical isomers and salts of optical isomers with the intent to manufacture methamphetamine or any of its analogs.
The parties agree that neither of these statutes reveals whether the legislature intended to punish the same conduct under both statutes. Accordingly, Missouri’s general cumulative punishment statute, § 566.041, RSMo 1994, is applicable. It reads:
When the same conduct of a person may establish the commission of more than one offense he may be prosecuted for each such offense. He may not, however, be convicted of more than one offense if:
(1) One offense is included in the other, as defined in section 556.046;
§ 566.046, RSMo 1994, in relevant part, reads:
1... An offense is so included when
(1) It is established by proof of the same or less than all the facts required to establish the commission of the offense charged;
“If each of the offenses for which the defendant was convicted requires proof of an element which the other does not, the offenses are not included offenses within the meaning of § 556.046.1(1).”
Villa-Perez,
The court first notes that in
State v. Brown,
The crime of the manufacture of methamphetamine requires the state to prove the defendant: (1) manufactured methamphetamine and (2) was aware the substance he manufactured was methamphetamine. The crime of possession of pseudoephedrine with intent to manufacture methamphetamine requires the state to prove the defendant: (1) possessed pseudoephedrine; (2) was aware of its presence; and (3) possessed it with the intent to manufacture methamphetamine.
State v. White,
Appellant’s conviction for the manufacture of methamphetamine and the possession of pseudoephedrine with intent to manufacture methamphetamine did not violate double jeopardy. Therefore, Appellant’s pleas of guilty to each were not involuntary due to counsel’s failure to object to the convictions on that basis. This point is denied.
B.
Appellant’s second claim of error is that no factual basis was shown to support Appellant’s guilty plea to the count of possession of pseudoephedrine because at the plea hearing Appellant was originally questioned about the charge of possession of ephedrine that was later amended. Appellant failed to raise this claim in his Rule 24.035 motion. “An issue not raised as a ground for relief in the Rule 24.035 motion is not cognizable on appeal and will not be reviewed by this court.”
Smith v. State,
The judgment denying post-conviction relief is affirmed.
All Concur.
