Upland wins decision against G3 in Riverside appeal case

RIVERSIDE - The banning of the G3 Holistic marijuana collective by Upland and other cities was upheld by an appellate court Wednesday. A judgment from the Fourth District Court of Appeals determined that Upland's banning of the collective did not contradict Proposition 215, the 1996 law that approved medical marijuana in the state, nor Senate Bill 420, which details the amount of marijuana a person can possess for medical purposes.

"We conclude Upland's ordinance banning (medical marijuana dispensaries) is not preempted by state law," read the decision. "We therefore affirm the preliminary injunction, judgment and all related monetary awards."

What this decision does is totally go against the spirit of which SB215 and SB420 was designed to do..
In other words the law was written in a way that could be perceived the way this Judge did it...
So in a nut shell... Both Bills are just about worthless.. Only allow Medical Recs for the purpose of getting out of Jail free.. Nothing more..
Now the spirit of these Bills has been totally ignored and Cannabis Patients have been sent back into the crime of the streets to find Cannabis for relief... With all the risks involved...
This is one of the worst decisions on this I have ever seen...
Its add how this took all these years for one Judge to decide this is how the law is.. Giving the Local Governments the power over the State laws and saying screw you all on this and especially you so called Cannabis Patients...
