A: The freedom to use one’s medical marijuana cards to ingest medical marijuana while someone is on any type of criminal probation in the city or County courthouses throughout the state of Oklahoma is a confusing mess.

Well many probation officers and Judges DO allow the use of medical marijuana while you are negotiating a term of probation, there are a smattering of individual judges throughout the state in the different courthouses who DO NOT allow it. It is certainly not uniform and it can be frustrating.

You just need to work through your attorney to get the answer to this question. You certainly don’t want to take a chance and violate probation which could end up giving you a conviction or taking away your freedom or liberty.
