    Making A Federal Case Out Of Marijuana

    By Michael Komorn

    Our client, a medical marijuana patient registered with the State of Michigan, was out for a boat ride and some fishing on his friend’s boat. What started out as a glorious day with intentions of sun and fishing on the Detroit river later turned into federal charges of possession of marijuana (21 USC 844, 21 USC 844a) when a Border Patrol agent pulled up to them and wanted to search their vessel.   Related: Michigan law regarding marijuana manufacture, delivery, and possession   The federal

    Komorn Law recommends keeping medical marijuana card and protections.

    By Michael Komorn

    After the legalization of marijuana in Michigan, some patients are thinking they could stop paying the state $100 for the special mmp card , and just use the recreational marijuana law to grow their medicine. A patient with a registered card can use the ultimate defense and immunity to avoid a driving under the influence charge. Only adults 21 or over are protected by the new legalization law, but no one yet knows how the new law will affect driving privileges. Is the zero toleran

    Michigan is licensing marijuana businesses but they still cant use banks.

    By Michael Komorn

    LANSING, MI - It was chilly on the morning of Dec. 15., but Michigan State Police stood outside a state office building. They were there for safety, ready, as the Bureau of Medical Marihuana Regulation opened its doors, for some applicants to show up with the $6,000 application fee in cash.     Michigan lawmakers authorized a new medical marijuana industry in 2016, and the state began accepting applications to be a part of it on Dec. 15, 2017. But businesses seeking inclusion

    Best lawyer for possession of marijuana in Michigan! Victory!

    By Michael Komorn

    Patients and Caregivers are discriminated upon in many facets of life, be it employment, housing, education, student loans, banking, travelling, medical care, prescription medical care, parental rights... and in this case, Emergency Medical Care!   My client is a Michigan Medical Marijuana patient who was having an emergency. An ambulance picked him up, and against his hospital preference, the ambulance took him to the U of M Ann Arbor Hospital.   While at the hospital, the p

    Why was medical marijuana banned?

    By Michael Komorn

    As this news hit in the last throes of 2017, it seems appropriate to take a step back and understand why exactly marijuana was banned all of those years ago. Please continue reading to find the answers on this long and weird journey through time.

Stuff To Think On...

I wonder if the MMMA has ever thought of switching gears a little in order to help out the patient community, and clear up some blog space.   Here's my thing... it seems like I see a WHOLE lot of complaints, and whining all the time. And then I can't help but wonder if opening the whole thing to menu's, and pricing, and all that jazz might just renew some interest, and allow the patients to have access to a lot more info, and op-ed type reviews.   I swear some people forget that a y

Good Luck To Everyone Attending The Rally!

Just wanted to wish everyone good luck and say a few words for those attending the rally tomorrow. If you are on this site at all you have seen the posts on appropriate conduct. I want to re-iterate the importance that patients should NOT medicate in public during this protest. I feel as strongly as anyone about these gross and disturbing violations of civil liberties and patients rights under the MMA. The fact remains that we as a medical marihuana community are the ones who have to convinc

Happy Labor Day All!

Walled Gardens of MMJ

Make Mine Michigan!

I'm new to the MMJ community, just completed Med Grow a few weeks back, have had my card for a couple of months. My take on the recent raids in Oakland and Lapeer is that there is obviously great confusion on how MMJ is going to be made available to Patients. The only way this is going to work is if we create a "Walled Garden", much like Apple has done with their iProducts. We need to ensure that only MMJ that is produced inside of the great state of Michigan, in facilities that are compliant

What A Day!

Man, I have got to say... Im not sure what places you have been to, and what places you havent been to, but I can tell you that C.A. in Mount Pleasant and Lansing gave me the BEST experience Ive had yet as a patient.   The staff was friendly, and the selection was GREAT!   I remember when Greg Francisco was setting all this up, and I can tell you for a fact that this is what Greg wanted to see, and I for one and DARN PROUD that someone is doing it right. It's going to help the entir

A Proven Treatment For Bipolar And Depression (In Cali) :( Why Not Mi?

***Anxiety, Depression or Obsession - Even though mild anxiety is a common side effect in some users, cannabis can elevate your mood and expand the mind "With the expansiveness that occurs with marijuana, the subject may begin to notice infinite possibilities to raise the quality of his/her life that would otherwise have remained hidden from normal, defensive consciousness. And feelings of health and happiness naturally lead to hope, which of itself can be curative." - Joan Bello[/color]   Ma

Pre 1975 - Columbian Gold Bud, Red Bud & Thai Stick Seeds

I recently caught up with an old friend that I used to get the real gold bud from back in the early 70s. When no one had buds, he had the lids of the real deal gold bud or red bud, or Thai sticks or hash. We talked for a few minutes and the conversation of course led to buds. I mentioned I was a legal patient now and told him some things about our medical cannabis law. He says, '...so you can grow legally now? Want some seeds?'   I've never been lucky, but this one is trump. Last week, he sho

Great Information, Great Location, Great Service

I just reciently went to Modernage Compassion Club in Waterford Michigan, 4490 Dixie Highway. The whole thing was pretty neet, Its a place to hang out away from home, where i could medicate, meet other patients, play pool, Watch TV, play video games, and there are caregivers there willing to help you get what you need. They are quick to help you with any information you need, any questions you have, the girl at the desk even printed out the renewal form for me, and I set up an appointment with

The Pain Is So Real

My body is full of pain today. I can feel it from my head to my toes. Today is going to be one of those days where I just lay around and do nothing. Yesterday I cleaned and did laundry.. no cleaning today. It is raining right now so maybe that is why I am feeling this way, but my medicating is not helping so far. Next week 2 special people are coming into town for a bit and that should cheer me up.. but right now I am feeling very lonely. I had a dream last night that someone loved me so much an
