The medical marijuana dispensary battle wages on picking up where it left off a couple of weeks ago. Today, the LA Times announced that The Union of Medical Marijuana Patients (a local advocacy group) and Americans for Safe Access (a national organization) may be planning to sue city if the City Council passes the ordinance banning the sale of medical marijuana.
So it's game on for City Attorney Carmen Trutanich who spearheaded the anti-Marijuana initiative last month. The advocacy organizations are saying that Trutanich misinterpreted the law and court decisions in fashioning the proposal.
Two committees will meet today to complete the ordinance with the provision that's causing all the heated debate.
