Detroit— In the wake of attempts to make marijuana legal in Michigan, Wayne State University this month will host a symposium on the implications of national and state marijuana reform.Former Attorney General Mike Cox will give the keynote address at the event, to be held Jan. 27 in WSU Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium. It is free, and open to the public.

 

The day-long symposium is sponsored by The Wayne Law Review and will feature various speakers, including the former advisor to the National Office of Drug Control Policy and analysts from the Marijuana Policy Project, which advocates for policy changes in reforming marijuana laws.

 

It comes as advocates are launching an effort this month to collect enough signatures to ask voters in November to make marijuana legal in Michigan

 

"We are very excited to bring together prominent experts from around the country, as well as local attorneys practicing in Metro Detroit, to speak on such a timely topic," said Jessica Bajkowski, Wayne Law Review symposium editor.

Former Michigan Attorney General is the keynote speaker at a medical marijuana policy symposium hosted by the Wayne Law Review at Wayne State University.

 

Cox, now working out of the Dykema Gossett law firm, is one of several guests at the free symposium later this month.

 

Wayne Law Review: This symposium addresses some of the major social, economic, health and legal issues presented by current marijuana laws and proposed marijuana policies. The discussions will explore the dichotomy between federal and state marijuana legalization, the policy behind the respective laws, as well as address the unpredictability of their enforcement. Also considered will be the legalization of marijuana for medicinal use, local regulation and enforcement, physician compliance and patient rights.

During Cox's tenure as attorney general, the Michigan Medical Marijuana Act was passed by a voter referendum.

 

There will be two panel discussions and a lunchtime talk featuring the following speakers: Distinguished Professor Robert Sedler, Wayne State University Law School; Saby Ghoshray, founder of the Institute of Interdisciplinary Studies; Kevin Sabet, fellow at University of Pennsylvania and former advisor to National Office of Drug Control Policy Director Gil Kerlikowske; Dan Riffle, legislative analyst, Marijuana Policy Project; Jesse C. Vivian, professor of pharmacy, Wayne State University Eugene Applebaum College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences; Karen O'Keefe, director of state policies, Marijuana Policy Project; Professor Noah Hall, Wayne State University Law School; Matthew Abel, Cannabis Counsel; William Vertes, attorney, Kitch Drutchas Wagner Valitutti and Sherbrook; Kevin Sabet; and Neil Rockind, Rockind PC.

 

"We are very excited to bring together prominent experts from around the country, as well as local attorneys practicing in Metro Detroit, to speak on such a timely topic," Jessica Bajkowski, Wayne Law Review symposium editor, said in a news release.

 

The symposium will be held from 8 a.m.-5 p.m. on January 27 in Wayne State University Law School's Spencer M. Partrich Auditorium.

Mr. Redden did you see the planet green tree's show tonight ? Maybe you can call in if I understood things right a State Rep will be on hand who wants to limit recommendations to ones regular Doctors even though many work for hospitals that prevent them writting for MM outright or let them know their carreers or affiliation may be terminated .

 

Your living proof things are out of control on the enforcement side . I forget with a active case maybe you should be careful speaking about your specific situation .
