The Criminal Trial Lawyers Association of Northern California strongly opposes the federal government’s recent threat to shutter medical marijuana dispensaries and criminally prosecute those who, while compliant with laws enacted by the State of California, are deemed to run afoul of federal law. Action taken by the U.S. Department of Justice to prohibit State-legalized medical marijuana clubs from operating near schools would — among other detriments — require virtually all such clubs in San Francisco to close, resulting in the suffering of numerous patients afflicted with painful and chronic medical conditions.
