Jasmin Holt, 35, appeared in Wagga Local Court via audio-visual link with a prison on Wednesday following her arrest on Monday.
It is alleged police found 41.58 grams of methamphetamine (ice) in a room they searched after being allowed in by Holt.
It is also alleged police found $4450 in cash and drug paraphernalia, including a glass pipe commonly used to smoke ice and items associated with the supply of prohibited drugs.
After her arrest, Holt faced Cootamundra Local Court on Tuesday, followed by her appearance in Wagga Local Court.
Duty solicitor Rohan Harrison said there would be no application for bail.
He said one of the five charges laid against Holt - supplying a prohibited drug greater than the indictable quantity - was a strictly indictable matter, meaning it will have to be finalised in the District Court.
Holt has also been charged with possessing equipment for administering prohibited drugs, possessing a prohibited drug, dealing with property suspected of being the proceeds of crime and having goods in custody suspected of being stolen.
Magistrate Michael Antrum gave the prosecution until December 10 to prepare a brief of evidence against Holt.
Mr Harrison asked for the brief be served on Holt in prison, and said Holt would then give the document to a Legal Aid solicitor chosen to represent her.
The case was adjourned to Young Local Court in January 6 for the solicitor to reply to the brief.
Holt will not be required to appear in court that day if legally represented.
