A man has been sentenced to custody after police found drugs on him during a search.
Thomas Garrity, of Church Lane in Heckmondwike, appeared at Kirklees Magistrates’ Court via a prison video link.
He pleaded guilty to possession of the class B drug amphetamine.
The 41-year-old was arrested at an address in Daisy Hill, Dewsbury, on January 27 at 3am in connection with another matter.
No charges were brought on this but the 41-year-old was searched and two wraps of white powder were found in a tin in his trouser pocket.
He told police that this was for his own personal use.
The offence put him in breach of a conditional discharge imposed for possession of cannabis.
Garrity, currently a serving prisoner, was jailed for 10 weeks.
The bags of amphetamine will be forfeited and destroyed and he will have to pay £115 victim surcharge upon his release.
