NOTE WELL: See N.C. Gen. Stat. § 15A-928 for provisions regarding

The defendant has been charged with the possession of a

pseudoephedrine product with a prior conviction for the [[possession] with

the intent to [sell] [deliver]] [trafficking] [manufacture of] a

[methamphetamine] [immediate precursor chemical1].

For you to find the defendant guilty of this offense2, the State must

prove two things beyond a reasonable doubt:

First, that the defendant on (name date) possessed a

pseudoephedrine product.

And Second, on (name date) in (name court) the defendant [was

convicted of] [pled guilty to] [[possession] with intent to [sell] [deliver]]

[trafficking] [manufacture of] a [methamphetamine] [immediate precursor

chemical] in violation of the law of the [State of North Carolina] [State of

(name state) [United States].

If you find from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt that on or

about the alleged date the defendant possessed a pseudoephedrine product

and had a prior conviction for the [[possession] with intent to [sell]

[deliver]] [trafficking] [manufacture of] [methamphetamine] [immediate

precursor chemical], then it would be your duty to return a verdict of guilty.

If you do not so find, or have a reasonable doubt as to one or both of these

things, then it would be your duty to return a verdict of not guilty.
