Zombiefied Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 Did you sell to them? I think its only entrapment when THEY try to get YOU to do something ILLEGAL, but I could be wrong, I dont know anything about entrapment and I am not a lawyer or legal console.

phaquetoo Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 10 lbs is a lil over the legal limit bro, Im not on no high horse, Ive had over 10 lbs many times, luckily I didnt get caught, can you go into more detail, i think you mite need better than a court appted attny. find matt ables number on here, I wish you luck, if you were in your legal limits you would be protected by the a.d defense, that is written into the law, Im not an attny, but you do need one better than court appted! I dont beleive any one should be arrested for mmj, but unfortunatly po po's do, and they are going to say you are over your legal limit, you dr, rec makes you legal as far as im concerned, but it is not me that will be trying you, if it was me id send you a letter and tell you to medicate and enjoy the day, charges are dropped!

JohnB RPh Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Then you should be able to use the AD. I would make a copy of the law and educate your lawyer with it. Not trying to be a thread stealer here, but am I correct in the understanding that the AD is only effective if one is within compliance of the standards of the Medical Marijuana act (2.5.oz, 12 plants or less) at time of arrest?

westmich Posted June 4, 2010 Report Share Posted June 4, 2010 Not trying to be a thread stealer here, but am I correct in the understanding that the AD is only effective if one is within compliance of the standards of the Medical Marijuana act (2.5.oz, 12 plants or less) at time of arrest? Not quite. The purpose of the AD is to provide a defense for a medical need. If you can show a jury that you need 10 pounds for your own medical purposes, then the jury can find you not guilty. The AD was used in a recent trial of a man growing 42 plants. He had a log book and tried to show the jury that he needed the 42 plants to supply his medical needs. Unfortunately, the jury didn't buy it and he was found guilty. IMHO, it's a two-part law. If you have a card, 12 plants or less, and/or 2.5 ounces or less, police are supposed to leave you be. If you go outside of this, but have a medical need that necessitates it, then you can use the AD. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first part of your post helps put my mind at ease that I didn't pursue an AD further. I would've been too chicken to test a jury, even though it only takes one "not guilty".

CannabisPatient#1 Posted June 5, 2010 Report Share Posted June 5, 2010 meeting with court app. lawyer 2-day That is the worst option. Court Appointed attorneys usually don't give a rats azz about what happens to their "clients". Please get a good lawyer. It is worth the money. I heard that David Butler is great if you are in the Kalamazoo area. My buddy said it was the best $5,000 he ever spent when he was facing 14 years behind bars. I wish you the best of luck, and I will say a prayer for you. You are going to need it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Incorrect. The AD section of the law has it's own limits that are different that the main law. The limit is whatever is reasonable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
