i usually only smoke like one bowl a day and if i get a medical card will i be ok no matter what
answered on Mar 29, 2023
It is illegal to smoke marijuana in Ohio. This is true even if you have a medical card. Your employment is also not protected from the use of marijuana even if you have a medical card. Marijuana in your system will likely be determined to be a contributing factor in any accident.
But prior to this event management has been trying to get rid me. After that drug test I got injured during work and end up messing up my knee pretty bad. I was never sent to get another test to verify this I was let go a week after the accident.

It is likely--even under California law--that your employer can legally fire you for failing a drug test.
I advise you, however, to keep the CBD oil that you used and to have it tested for THC. Although it is extremely rare to test positive on a drug test as a result of using CBD oil,... Read more »

First, body cams are not required by law, so there is nothing abnormal or problematic with not having body cam video in discovery since not all officers are equipped with body cams.
Second, it is not uncommon for search warrants to be obtained under a unique cause number and not in the same... Read more »
