 Coolness: 2749320 | WASHINGTON, Oct. 14 — The Supreme Court cleared the way Tuesday for state laws allowing ill patients to smoke marijuana if a doctor recommends it.
JUSTICES TURNED down the Bush administration’s request to consider whether the federal government can punish doctors for recommending or perhaps even talking about the benefits of the drug to sick patients. An appeals court said they cannot be punished. Nine states have laws legalizing marijuana for patients with physician recommendations or prescriptions: Alaska, Arizona, California, Colorado, Hawaii, Maine, Nevada, Oregon and Washington, and 35 states have passed legislation recognizing marijuana’s medicinal value. But federal law bans the use of pot under any circumstances. The case gave the court an opportunity to review its second medical marijuana case in two years. The last one involved cannabis clubs.
