Opening a Dispensary in California


Providing people with ‘medical cannabis’ is illegal under the federal laws of the country, while it may be legal under certain state laws. While the people of California sought to legalize use, cultivation and possession of cannabis (commonly known as marijuana or pot), it is still illegal under federal law. While there have been remarkable developments to change the situation, the federal law has not changed. However with prop 215 and SB420, California law has recognized patients rights to medical cannabis with a doctors recommendation and has made provision for the formation of collectives.
