Q: Having your medical marijuana card and cpl in michigan
If you read the law for the medical marijuana in michigan it states that 4. Protections for the Medical Use of Marihuana.
Sec. 4. (a) A qualifying patient who has been issued and possesses a registry identification card is not
subject to arrest, prosecution, or penalty in any manner, or denied any right or privilege,
So how would i be denied my right to own firearms and the privledge to have my cpl if i have a prescription for marijuana
A:
Having a medical marijuana card in itself, does not conflict with having a CPL. However, the law governing CPLs does make clear that you may not carry while under the influence - medical marijuana does not excuse someone from that provision.
In short, you may have both, but you can't use both at the same time.
