The Cannabis Research Library is a collection of international journal articles on medical marijuana usage. The OCBC and its legal team will soon return to US District Court to raise more arguments in defense of California patients' right to a safe and affordable supply of medical cannabis. We still are fighting the US government, which uses its endless supply of taxpayers' money to fight this civil war against us. OCBC's lawyers are valiant and under funded. We need everybody who cares about cannabis to send donations to our legal fund.
All donations are tax deductible.
The Oakland cooperative argues that the drug may not yet have achieved general acceptance as a medical treatment, but may still have medical benefits to a particular patient or class of patients. Thomas said the argument cannot overcome the intent of Congress in approving the statute. Unwilling to view this omission as an accident, and unable in any event to override a legislative determination manifest in a statute, we reject the cooperative's argument. Arizona, Alaska, California, Colorado, Maine, Nevada, Oregon and Washington have approved ballot initiatives allowing the use of medical marijuana. The governor of Hawaii signed a similar law last year.
