I'm curious if Colorado will ever lift the moratorium on obtaining a new license. I wouldn't be surprised if they don't for years. The Green Rush ladies and gentlemen. Let the fun begin. Passing Go used to be so easy haha.
In California I don't know of any definition of a "legal" bud-tender. This had to have had something to do with the card or caregiving status itself, our courts have made it crystal clear how they define caregiver and it's pretty stringent.The cop had a card and had a caregiver for themselfs,went inside and sign up and bought some meds.Then cameback and arrested them for selling it to them for not being the primary caregiver.:sign0065: So if you have a caregiver you cant buy from the store's or was the person who sold it to them was not a legal bud tender??
So cannabis is not an agricultural product, that's a new one. Pretty creative interpretation of what "agriculture" means I was sure it meant "plants." I bet that grapes for wine and hops for beer are grown on "agricultural" zoned land.
Or am I misunderstanding you entirely? :o I just meant the wrong person sold it to the cop. I think yes to all above questions plus they must have a card themselfs,bonded?dont think so!!
What she is saying is bud tenders aren't legal no matter what... They are considered drug dealers to the police.
Well, no, I'm really asking. I've never read any requirements in the state law about who can actually sell cannabis in a storefront. I just assumed 18yo+ and no criminal record, stuff the actual employer would be concerned with. Knowing that 215 doesn't expressly make legal any dispensing, etcetera, and the court decision that made the definition of caregiver so restrictive, I suppose I can see how that becomes the case (tenders being equivalent to dealers).What she is saying is bud tenders aren't legal no matter what... They are considered drug dealers to the police.
The only thing pre-existing businesses might have going for them would be estoppel. If the city/county issued a permit to operate and then yanked that permit for anything other than code violations, there might be a leg to stand on. But there is absolutely nothing in 215 (or what remains of SB 420) that specifically legalizes, outlines, describes, anythings dispensaries, cooperatives and collectives.The state and county are going to win every time, petitions and support drives are a total waste of time. The courts are so clear on it that its not even funny...not one suit brought by despensaries, patients or patient groups for commercial store front access has been won yet, not in any state. Unless there is a specific provision in your laws prop215 or sb420 for despensaries and or direct store front retail sales for profit and it has to say that exactly, its not goin to be recognised by the court.
Alot of attorneys will argue that the absence of any language about the specifics of despensaries in the law is de facto protection to move forward and that is just not the case at all
