Just because the use of marijuana has been decriminalized does not mean it could not interfere with your job.

Yes, just because certain drugs are taken by prescription or if they have been legalized does not mean that an employer has to hire you. I do not believe that they are required to indicate what drug or if that makes any difference whatsoever. Good luck and try some place else.
Can I ship cannabis via USPS or UPS from California or Denver to New Jersey.

Also can the cop search my trunk which is considered a lock compartment without a warrant?
answered on Jan 22, 2020
Yes, plain smell is an exception to the search warrant requirement. However, that does not mean that the underlying motor vehicle stop and subsequent search was valid. You should consult with an attorney to discuss the facts of your case and possible motion to suppress.

You are facing a criminal record and possibly loosing your license for 2 years. The prosecutor could decide to drop the charge based on card or reasonably say that you did not have it when you were arrested and continue to prosecute you. With no legal knowledge you are putting yourself at risk... View More
