Protect Your Rights in Michigan Medical Marijuana Cases

Cannabis Counsel, P.L.C. is here to help patients and caregivers registered under the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act.

  • Are you a patient or a caregiver under the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act, and your recent arrest for marijuana possession, manufacturing, delivery, or impaired driving not entirely “by the book”?
  • Were you subjected to drug testing techniques that you feel compromised your rights?
  • Do your medical needs require marijuana for the pain relief you sorely need?
  • Was your consent to search and seizure coerced?

Contrary to corporate media sophistry, the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act (MMMA) is as clear and unambiguous law every written.  It finds and declares, as a matter of law, in Section 2, the:

  • medicinal benefit of cannabis
  • intent to reduce cannabis arrests by 99%
  • Act is best for the health and welfare of it’s citizen

MMMA Section 3(e)’s definition of “medical use” includes “internal possession”- which means they can’t prosecute us for having it in our blood while we drive.

MMMA Section 4(a) is crystal clear that a qualifying patient “….shall not be subject to arrests, prosecution, or penalty in any manner, or denied any right or privilege… for the medical use of marijuana in accordance with this act….”

MMMA Section 8 provides an affirmative defense as a separate and distinct defense from section 4.

Perhaps most importantly, the superiority clause Section 7(e) “All other acts and parts of acts inconsistent with this act do not apply to the medical use of marijuana as provided for by this act.”
