WYOMING – City leaders are regulating how medical marijuana card holders can transport marijuana in their vehicles.

 

The City Council on Monday approved the first reading of an amendment to the city's possession of marijuana ordinance that makes it illegal to carry usable marijuana in a vehicle unless the marijuana is enclosed in a case in the vehicle's trunk or, in the case of vehicles without trunks, the marijuana must be enclosed in a case not readily accessible to vehicle occupants.

 

Violators will face a misdemeanor charge with a penalty of up to 90 days in jail.

 

City attorney Jack Sluiter said outlining how marijuana can be carried in vehicles is needed because police are frequently finding people in vehicles in possession of marijuana with medical marijuana cards.

 

The new regulations on transporting marijuana will require a second reading, which is expected to take place March 21, Clerk Kelli VandenBerg said. She said the amended ordinance will go into effect 15 days after the second reading.

 

The updates to the ordinance come two years after the state Supreme Court struck down the city's previous ordinance that virtually banned growing medical marijuana. The overturned ordinance strictly regulated how medical marijuana could be produced or possessed, but the court ruled the ordinance was preempted by the state's Medical Marijuana Act.

looks like wyoming didnt get the lesson the first time in court.

Manufacturing Marijuana:

 

Hillsdale County, Allen Township: A sergeant performed a traffic stop on a vehicle for improper display of a registration plate. Further investigation revealed a passenger in the vehicle, a 19-year-old Mount Pleasant man, was in possession of suspected marijuana as well as 19 marijuana plants. He was arrested for manufacturing marijuana and lodged at the Hillsdale County Jail.

 

 

this isnt improper transport (although the guy was a passenger and theres rules about that in sec4) but ... make sure nothing is obstructing your license plate.

Case DISMISSED!

June 10, 2016

 

The 2008 Michigan Medical Marijuana Act defines the medical use of marijuana and protects qualifying patients from arrest and criminal or civil penalties. But in 2012, MCL 750.474 was added, and that statute appears to criminalize certain ways of transporting medical marijuana that were perfectly legal under the MMMA. For example, the 2012 criminal statute provides that unless medical marijuana is transported in the vehicle’s trunk in a sealed container, the patient is subject to imprisonment, and/or fines.

 

When one of our firm’s clients was charged violation of 750.474, Attorney Joslin Monahan sought to have the charge dismissed based on the fact that the statute was in conflict with the MMMA, and thus, inapplicable to the client. Attorney Monahan also argued that MCL 750.474 was an unconstitutional amendment by reference.

 

Although the prosecutor was initially unwilling to dismiss the 750.474 charge, after Monahan filed a motion to dismiss, the prosecutor agreed. This was a tremendous victory for our client.

Marijuana news: improper transport law struck down by Allegan County's Judge Cronin

 

It's similar to an "open container" charge for alcohol - if the driver - or passenger - can consume alcohol while driving, then the police can write a ticket for that. So the improper transport law sort of seems to have a logical basis.

So the question arose whether the Improper Transport law, as applied, would be constitutional, as it makes the goals of the Medical Marijuana Act, and the intent of the voters who approved that Act. How would a qualified patient (or caregiver), who is otherwise immune from prosecution for criminal offense, be able to transport his or her MJ once obtained? It seems to create a double negative: qualified patients can't be prosecuted, unless they're transporting? Makes no sense at all.

So the answer (so far) is that the Improper Transport law is not constitutional, according to a ruling by Allegan County's Judge Kevin Cronin. The thing is, though, that the decisions of Circuit Courts aren't binding on other Courts. However, the Michigan Court of Appeals is waiting to hear a similar case in the next few months.

Man, that is horrible.

[Alphabob]

Have to wonder why this law hasn’t been challenged in CoA or MSC over the last four years… kinda like they don’t want to. Technically speaking, the transport law could be applied to non-cardholders or those in violation of section 4. The law as a whole isn’t unconstitutional because it doesn’t specifically mention medical marijuana, it’s the application to legal cardholders that’s unconstitutional.

 

The same thing can be said about a per se THC limit; it is unconstitutional if applied to a protected patient. We may need a new thread when the saliva tests hit, because it’s going to be the new illegal transport. Probably worse to be honest, because we all know they are going back to odor being probable cause for various claims (including having THC in our systems).

 

But yea, those last cases are an example of why you need a good lawyer who is ready to fight and submit motions. I was pissed about randomized pretrial drug testing in Oakland (guilty before proven innocent), but 93 days is a little excessive.

[Alphabob]

The per se limit (zero) in Michigan cannot be applied to patients, so that is done. The improper transport law is being challenged in People v Callen Trent Latz, pending now in the Court of Appeals. The transport law cannot be applied to non-cardholders as they see it: a reasonable regulation to the MMMA's permission to transport under the definition of medical use. I agree that the bogus saliva testing will be even worse, potentially, than the improper transport issue, especially in combination with the bogus drug recognition experts they are training in the state.

 

Why can't they apply the transport law to non-cardholders (recreational users)? I get the argument that there is no legal way for a non-cardholder to transport or possess, but the bill isn't called "illegal transport" or "transportation of medical marihuana" (except for local ordinances). It's "Transportation or possession of usable marihuana". Although usable marijuana is only defined in the MMMA, it's definition does not refer to just medical marihuana. Usable marihuana is simply the flower and leaves, so it should be applicable to anyone who doesn't have a card except those under section 8.

 

I get that the courts have ordered the per se issue over with, but the state police are about to revive it. The circumstances of this law are identical to the illegal transport issue with respect to constitutionality and MMMA section 7. All they will see or be trained on is what the saliva testing bill says, and that bill is based on per se limits... ANY amount. So there may be precedent to fight these charges in court for those with the cash (if you don't get a bad judge), but in reality LEO is going to be pulling the same BS over again. Can we really expect people who have been fabricating felony evidence to be trusted with such power? Hell no, in reality they are about to undo six years of court battles.

 

I can tell you right now that they are going to be using odor to claim they have grounds for mouth swabs due to the bills blanket per se limits. One thing I've learned is that PAAM and the others involved are not stupid, just malicious and lazy.

What is "discretionary jail"?

[t-pain]

the internet says this:

 

Discretionary time means a probation officer can get unhappy with the defendant and take him to jail for a week, or two, or 30 days, or whatever.

 

 

so in that case , its probation for 1 year, and if the person violates probation, the probation officer can put him in jail for 93 days total.

 

but , i've read, that it is different than a probation violation. in that it probably does not need an official violation hearing. i wonder if they can do both though? discretionary and violation 93 days + whatever for violation?

check out the www.hougthonlakeresorter.com Im not sure if you can get the court news, but most all ilegal transports are arrested by home town security mi state police division, they are profiling on I-75 in roscomon, crawford and otsego county's!

 

every single ilegal transport is from home town security, and most are legal pt's not carrying it in the box/trunk or back of vehicle, and they have more than they are supposed to,,,,,,,

 

I know this can happen to all of us, but why would some one not just follow the transport rules and dont attract attn!

 

I dont drive any where with any mj in my pocket or in reach in my suv, I make sure my lites are always working and I use my cruise control! 

 

A real good way to get pulled over up here is cruising along the free way your driving the speed limit, but when you see the cop you hit the breaks!  That is supsicious, If I was a cop and you hit your breaks while doing the speed limit, Im gonna tail ya, your gonna get nervious and im gonna pull your assssss over!  Dont be stupid when you drive, follow all of the traffic laws dont attract attn to your self, my ole lady hits the skids every fricking time she see's a cop, it pisssses me off every time also!  I dont let her drive me any more lol!

He had 8.95 grams of suspected marijuana in the glove-box which is an illegal transportation under current statutes. He was lodged in the Flint City Jail. — P.S.

specifically, 4b

 

http://legislature.mi.gov/doc.aspx?mcl-333-26424b-added

 

(1) Except as provided in subsections (2) to (4), a qualifying patient or primary caregiver shall not transport or possess a marihuana-infused product in or upon a motor vehicle.

 

(2) This section does not prohibit a qualifying patient from transporting or possessing a marihuana-infused product in or upon a motor vehicle if the marihuana-infused product is in a sealed and labeled package that is carried in the trunk of the vehicle or, if the vehicle does not have a trunk, is carried so as not to be readily accessible from the interior of the vehicle. The label must state the weight of the marihuana-infused product in ounces, name of the manufacturer, date of manufacture, name of the person from whom the marihuana-infused product was received, and date of receipt.

 

(3) This section does not prohibit a primary caregiver from transporting or possessing a marihuana-infused product in or upon a motor vehicle if the marihuana-infused product is accompanied by an accurate marihuana transportation manifest and enclosed in a case carried in the trunk of the vehicle or, if the vehicle does not have a trunk, is enclosed in a case and carried so as not to be readily accessible from the interior of the vehicle. The manifest form must state the weight of each marihuana-infused product in ounces, name and address of the manufacturer, date of manufacture, destination name and address, date and time of departure, estimated date and time of arrival, and, if applicable, name and address of the person from whom the product was received and date of receipt.

 

 

f) "Marihuana-infused product" means a topical formulation, tincture, beverage, edible substance, or similar product containing any usable marihuana that is intended for human consumption in a manner other than smoke inhalation.

 

 

the mmma law does not define label nor manifest.
