He gave no indication of plea to all the charges.
It is alleged Mr Perry had in his possession on April 20, 2023, a quantity of cocaine with intent to supply it to others.
The offence allegedly occurred at Hill Top Close in Harrogate.
On the same date, again at Hill Top Close, Mr Perry is accused of possessing cannabis, intending to supply it to others.

The defendant, of Cotefields Avenue in Pudsey, is also accused of producing a quanting of cannabis between an unknown date and November 14, 2023.
The case was transferred to York Crown Court, where Mr Perry is due to appear on March 23.
