Don't Ban Medical Cannabis in Los Angeles

Category: News | Posted on Thu, January, 12th 2012 by THCFinder

Some City Councilmembers in Los Angeles want to ban medical cannabis (marijuana) patients' cooperatives and collectives outright.

 

Patients and other community members have been working with the City Council to promote, develop, and implement sensible regulations for the city since 2005.

 

Banning patients' associations now means the City Council is turning its back on the large majority of local patients who rely on cooperatives and collectives for safe access to medicine.

 

Tell the Los Angeles City Council to live up to the promises they made to legal patients and the community over the years.

Pot Dispensary Judge 'Made a Mistake'

Category: News | Posted on Thu, January, 12th 2012 by THCFinder

Biased Judge does the right thing last minute...probably to save his own ass!

A Long Beach judge recused himself today from the case of two men convicted of illegal marijuana sales at their dispensaries in Long Beach and Orange County, saying he wrote a glowing letter about the trial prosecutor prior to his sentencing of them.
 
Frankly, I made a mistake,'' Long Beach Superior Court Judge Charles Sheldon told attorneys in the case of Joseph James Byron and Joe Matthew Grumbine of Lake Elsinore, who were convicted Dec. 21 and were awaiting sentencing by Sheldon.
 
The attorney for Grumbine and Byron had asserted throughout the trial that the judge was overtly biased in favor of the prosecution and had successfully appealed one of his rulings that was overturned.
 
A courtroom audience packed with supporters of the two men applauded loudly after the judge announced that he was voluntarily recusing himself from the case. In the "mistake" letter dated Jan. 4, the judge wrote to Deputy District Attorney Jodi Castano's supervisor, Sally Thomas, that the prosecutor ``was unflappable, composed, steady, organized, and totally professional from beginning to end.''
 
The judge also wrote in the letter that he wanted to let Thomas know that ``you chose the right lawyer to handle this difficult case.'' The judge also forwarded a copy of the letter to attorneys for Byron and Grumbine on Jan. 5, noting in a letter to them that their clients' sentencing was ``coming up soon'' and that he felt they were entitled to know that the letter had recently been sent to the District Attorney's Office and the prosecutor.
 
``It's pretty obvious who was favored in this case and who wasn't,'' said Grumbine's attorney, Christopher M. Glew. ``To send a letter like that before sentencing, even he said, is a mistake ... Their (judges') job is to be neutral.''

DEA agents raid 3 local medical marijuana dispensaries

Category: Dispensaries | Posted on Thu, January, 12th 2012 by THCFinder
Another sad day for the medical marijuana industry and it's patients who count on medical marijuana to get by day to day with their ailements.
 
SAN DIEGO (CBS 8) - The DEA has raided three San Diego medical marijuana clinics for violating federal law.
 
Warrants were served at two collectives on University Avenue, and one on Garnet in Pacific Beach. The federal government informed the three clinics they had 45 days to either shut down or face criminal charges.
 
Supporters of medical marijuana protested outside the Golden West clinic in North Park as federal agents confiscated marijuana and related equipment.
 
"It's a total violation of state rights. California legalized medical marijuana. For the federal government to come in like this is a slap in the face to every Californian," protester Alfonso Padilla said.
 
At least one person was arrested.
