It is the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act:

The First 24 Months

This article examines the introduction of Michigan Medical Marijuana Act, approved by referendum during the

general election of 2008. Likely, when it was it was incorporated into our human tapestry the MMA was subject to

certain judicial interpretations that are already well-known and has a prospect of further developments.

The Michigan Legislature approved the MMA on December 4 in 2008 which made Michigan as the thirteenth country

in the country to permit the cultivation and possession of marijuana for medical reasons. The Act included a number

of studies that uncovered the positive effects of marijuana for treating nausea, pain, and other symptoms arising

from a range of debilitating medical ailments. The Act mentions that, as per the FBI that 99% of marijuana

possession-related arrests in the United States are done according to state law, not federal law. It is vital to keep in

mind that possession of marijuana is still unlawful under federal law.

The MMA defines the term "debilitating medical disease" as glaucoma, cancer, HIV, hepatitis C and various other

conditions as well as other chronic illnesses that can cause nausea and pain. The term "primary caretaker" will be "a

individual who's the age of 21 and has agreed to help the medical use of a patient's marijuana, but has never been

found guilty of a felony that involved illegal substances." "Qualifying patient" is "qualifying patient" is "a patient who

has been diagnosed by a doctor as suffering from a debilitating medical illness."

The basic principles of the Act stipulate that patients who are eligible as well as primary care providers (marijuana

growers) require an "registry identity card" provided through the Department of Community Health. A tens of

thousands of requests were processed, and thousands are pending and an increase in applications every week. The

demand for a marijuana certification is clearly insatiable within Afghan Hash.

The demand for marijuana is well-founded. Cardholders are not subject to arrest or prosecution for marijuana

possession/distribution provided the patient keeps less than 2.5 ounces of smokeable pot. Care providers are able to

keep up 12 plants for each approved patient. However, stems, seeds , and non-usable roots are not considered part

of the limit of plants.


Physicians are also exempt from prosecution in relation to their confirmation of the patient's need for the drug, as

long they make an evaluation of the medical background. A valid physician-patient relationship is needed.

In the years since U.S. Supreme Court decided the case of Conant vs. Walters on March 23, 2003 doctors have been

in a position to recommend to patients the consumption of cannabis (but can't prescribe marijuana by putting the

recommendation on the prescription form). Doctors may also take notes about their recommendations on the

patient's medical record and provide evidence in support of the medical benefits of marijuana in an administrative

court. A Conant decision of the Supreme Court Conant decision opened the way for the passage in the MMA.

Primary care professionals can be paid reimbursement for their use of marijuana. The sale of marijuana-related

paraphernalia is permissible under the MMA as well as the fact that such items is not able to be confiscated.

The presence of a person when using marijuana for medical reasons aren't susceptible to being detained.

Does it sound like too good to be true? If marijuana is sold to anyone other than qualified patients and the

registration card is removed and the seller is liable to a two-year criminal charge. Additionally, driving impaired by

marijuana is prohibited, as is smoking it in public. The possession or use of marijuana in school facilities or on school

buses is not permitted. It is unlawful to smoke marijuana in the penitentiary or jail regardless of medical health.

The Act set a short timetable (120-days) for the Department of Community Health to promulgate regulations for the

administration of the possession/distribution credential. It was delayed in issuance of these regulations led to

confusion between law enforcers officials, the general public, and some judges regarding the legality of what is not.

For instance in 2009, the Redden instance of Madison Heights involved a couple taken into custody during a drug

raid. Both had made an attempt to obtain the certification card prior to the time of their arrest, and were issued the

cards one year after the arrest. When he dismissed the case against the defendants, the 43rd District judge Robert

Turner characterized the MMA as "the most ineffective law I've ever ever seen in my entire life" as reported by The

Detroit News. Judge Turner's decision was appealed from the Oakland County Prosecutor where it was confirmed by

the Oakland County Circuit Court.
