Judge: Medical marijuana users can collect jobless benefits

MASON, Mich. — A Michigan judge has ruled that medical marijuana users who follow the state's medical marijuana law may collect unemployment benefits.
The Lansing State Journal reports Ingham County Circuit Judge William Collette's decision Tuesday overturned a state commission that found a state-approved medical marijuana user wasn't eligible for benefits after being fired following a drug test.
The case involves ex-Hayes Green Beach Memorial Hospital employee Jenine Kemp of Lansing, who was fired in 2011. Kemp, whose duties included performing CT scans and starting IVs, has Lupus and neuropathy. She would ingest marijuana in food.

Company hopes to bring 30 marijuana-dispensing machines to San Diego

SAN DIEGO - They dispense snacks and movies, but vending machines in San Diego may soon be kicking out a different product -- marijuana.
Those medical marijuana dispensaries shut down during a crackdown in 2011 could soon reappear in San Diego, along with some high-tech help.
"It's armor-coated. Second, it's 800 pounds," said Bruce Bedrick, CEO of Medbox.
The Medbox system is a patented machine that resembles a vending machine with one big difference.
Medical marijuana patients swipe a prepaid card, press their fingerprint and browse for medicine.
Bedrick hopes to build up to 30 dispensaries containing the machines in San Diego.
In a few weeks, with Mayor Bob Filner's backing, the San Diego City Council will consider an ordinance that would issue permits for dispensaries.
"Have we started taking deposits on … locations … yes, we have," said Bedrick.
Unlike machines that dispense movies or snacks, the major difference with the Medbox is security. The fingerprinting helps prevent fraud, and the software also validates prescriptions and dosage.
