Medical Marijuana Ordinance Upheld By Kern County Judge In California

California- Legality complication continue to arise as voters for Measure G was given an ultimatum of 30 days to come up with reasonable plan on how to operate Medical Marijuana Farm without compromising the California Environmental Quality Act or CEQA.

The said court order says that if the County failed to present a plan that is acceptable to the Californian authorities, then Measure G will be consider as invalid, and will no longer be given a chance to appeal in the higher court.

With this complication arises, the Medical Marijuana decided to sue Kern County, after supporting for the Measure G last June 2011. Other group which composed of patients who are under marijuana treatment and other sector supported the said petition on Kern County to face the court.

The said measurement G requires marijuana related business to be mile away from churches, public establishment and school institution.

But in August last year, Californian authorities found out that the Marijuana farmers have crossed the boundaries of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). According to the findings, farmers failed send the Measurement G to the CEQA, hence it was considered as an offense.

During the hearing last Friday, Twissleman, the court judge said that Measure G could be revive only if they can present the County, and to come up with a plan on how to fix the issue with CEQA.

In addition, the court ordered that Medical Marijuana Group will be given 30 days to comply with the legal requirements so that they can restore Measure G. However, if the court finds that the review presented do not match to the CEQA standard, then Measurement G will be automatically invalidated.

As of the moment, many pro for marijuana still hope that Measurement G will be restore, as it is big help to them.
