Feds Seek Patient and Caregiver Records
(AP, Dec. 28, 2010)
More than 45,000
people in Michigan are registered to use marijuana . . .
They can have up
to 2 1/2 ounces of ready-to-use pot and up to 12 plants kept in an
enclosed, locked facility. They could also choose to have a registered
caregiver grow the drug for them.
Law enforcement officials
have panned the law as poorly written, and an appeals court judge has
called it a "maze." The ACLU is suing cities
over anti-marijuana policies.
