VENTURA COUNTY SUES TO STOP CANNABIS CLUB
Ventura County is suing to shut down a local medical-marijuana business it
claims doesn't enjoy the protection of the state's Proposition 215.
The suit,filed Monday,contends the Ventura County Cannabis Center in
Thousand Oaks violates both federal and state law and allowing it to remain
open would cause "great or irreparable injury"to the public.
It is the latest attack on marijuana clubs around the state in the wake of
legal challenges to the ballot measure that legalized some use of the drug.
