Description
The Compassionate Use Act of 1996 (Health & Saf. Code, 11362.5, added by initiative, Prop. 215, as approved by voters, Gen. Elec. (Nov. 5, 1996)) gives a person who uses marijuana for medical purposes on a physicians recommendation a defense to certain state criminal charges involving the drug, including possession (Health & Saf. Code, 11357; see id., 11362.5, subd. (d)). Federal law, however, continues to prohibit the drugs possession, even by medical users. (21 U.S.C. 812, 844(a)); see Gonzales v. Raich (2005) 545 U.S. 1, 26-29; United States v. Oakland Cannabis Buyers Cooperative (2001) 532 U.S. 483, 491-495.)
