• The limits were removed for topicals as they are not designed to be transdermal.
• The limits were lowered for edible maximum per container to be more in line with other states (Oregon, Washington).
• THC limits were increased for capsules to allow for more in the container.
• Dosages were added for products that did not have them; containers will now have clear directions and dosages to ensure patients do not over medicate.
• Patients typically start with 10mg servings; an allowance between 50mg -100mg allows a patient/caregiver to purchase higher strength medicine if needed.

WXYZ – Former Monroe County judge sentenced to up to five years in prison for prostitution case
According to a Michigan State Police investigation, former Monroe County 1st District Judge Jarod Calkins hired women for sex and transported them for that purpose.
During the sentencing, the women released victim impact statements saying they were tortured sexually.
According to the warrant, Calkins allegedly found his victims online; he used the name Michael Collins in accounts on Facebook, Tinder and OKCupid.
He was sentenced to one to five years for four charges that will run concurrently, meaning at the same time.

The man provided officers with the car’s license plate number and a description of the incident. Michigan State Police identified Steenland as the suspected driver. Authorities said the incident occurred at 8:30 p.m. Sept. 25, 2017, near McKinnon Street in Roseville.

Michigan’s citizens have voted for the legalization of adult use marijuana which will become effective Dec 6, 2018. The laws that legalize marijuana do not clearly address and define many important issues pertaining to the legal adult use of marijuana.
Resolving the looming intricate details will require years or maybe a generation of interaction between lawmakers and the courts.The “lawful” use of marijuana in the State of Michigan will continue to bear legal risks, including the possibile criminal prosecution.Marijuana is still a schedule I drug.

One such subject relates to the combination of marijuana and driving. Michigan’s laws addressing intoxicated driving provide that it is unlawful to drive under the influence of or while impaired by alcohol, drugs or a combination of alcohol or drugs.
There is a zero-tolerance provision in the law for drugs appearing on the federal government’s “schedule I.” This means that if any amount of such drug is found in a driver’s blood, they are guilty of intoxicated driving, even if such drug had no impact on their ability to drive. Conviction for intoxicated driving under this zero-tolerance provision could result in punishments that are identical to those ordered for drunken drivers, including significant fines and costs, probation, the suspension of driving privileges and even possible incarceration.
In 2013 the Michigan Supreme Court carved out an exception to this zero-tolerance provision for medical marijuana users. This exception was based on an interpretation of specific language in the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act suggesting that zero tolerance should not apply to patients properly using medical marijuana. For several years prior to this ruling however, medical marijuana patients legally using marijuana faced unfair zero-tolerance prosecution and punishment for intoxicated driving.

Note: Most likely this will not happen (now) because it would need a large percentage of the vote and I would assume that many of our still being paid politicians are too busy looking for a new job during the lame duck layover to really care. One would think Arlan Meekhof had this ready to throw into the arena some time before the election.
