FACT MISSING IN MEDICAL MARIJUANA CASE
EDITOR:
Your editorial "Judge Made Right Decision in Pot Case" is missing one
important fact that both the judge and lawyers apparently did not know.
Michigan's law covering impaired driving based on a drug test for
marijuana was changed by a Michigan Supreme Court decision of June 8,
2010, as the result of an appeal of a 2005 case.
The decision requires evidence of actual impaired driving, not just a
drug test. The ruling is on line at
http://www.courts.michigan.gov/supremecourt/Clerk/10-09/138031/138031-Opinion.pdf
The decision applies equally to all cases involving driving and
marijuana, not just those of legal medicinal marijuana users.
In light of the Supreme Court decision it is likely that if this case
is appealed it will be reversed.
