SUPREME COURT TO CONSIDER MARIJUANA DISPENSARY RULING
This week the California Supreme Court received an emergency request
to temporarily set aside a Second Appellate Court District ruling
which could have made the Mendocino County zip tie program illegal.
The appeals court ruled Long Beach dispensaries crossed the line
between decriminalizing medical marijuana possession and authorizing
the possession and cultivation of the drug. The county has chosen to
wait until the courts decide the case before changing course on zip
ties or drafting a new ordinance regulating marijuana dispensaries.
