Ryan Harvison, 31, was not required to appear in Goulburn Local Court on Wednesday to face one charge of importing a commercial quantity of cocaine on June 22, 2022. On that date, police also charged him with supplying 1080 grams of methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), and knowingly deal in the proceeds of crime.
Harvison was previously refused bail and was not required to appear via audio-visual link from prison on Wednesday.
Speaking on behalf of Harvison's legal representative, solicitor John Dougall, told the court there was a fresh charge of importing a marketable quantity of border controlled drug.
Harvison has not yet entered a plea.
