Maryland's highest court stops medical marijuana hearing

Maryland's highest court on Friday intervened to stop a case that threatened to upend the medical marijuana industry.

The Court of Appeals blocked a Baltimore judge from holding a scheduled hearing about whether to put the entire cannabis program on hold. While the fledgling industry can move forward for now, its future is far from certain.

The underlying lawsuit still remains, and it seeks to throw out the process used to pick medical marijuana growers because the state did not consider racial diversity.

The high court issued a stay in the case "until further notice," but did not reveal what issues it would consider.

  2. Despite the fact that medical marijuana is legal in many states it is still illegal under federal law. It's just like the "service" dogs we are seeing popping up everywhere. There are psychiatrists who will for $500/cash "diagnosis" you with a "disorder" that requires you to have the dog go with you everywhere.
    There are doctors who for a fee will also prescribe marijuana. That's where most of the "prescriptions" come from. Unscrupulous doctors.
    With that in mind you can fully expect the Trump admin to crack down on these bogus prescriptions.
    Putting the program on hold would have been doing the "fledgling industry" a favor.

  4. Wow it firgues I live in the only blue state that can't get itself to pass medical marijuana. And why? Because a democrat led state didn't let minorities get a fair shake. Where is the outrage from the left? Why no riots? Oh that's right, they can't afford to pay protestors to protest themselves, gotta save that money for trump! What a joke democrats are. And think of the people that actually need this medicine for their health. But it's not about treating the sick, just who makes the most money doing it, right?
