MEDICAL MARIJUANA IS LEGAL IN THE STATE, BUT NOT THE NATION

The number of issues and stories that have surfaced since Oklahoma voters passed medical marijuana has been unimaginable. We have seen everything from a questionable rulemaking process, to a scandal involving a Health Department attorney, to questions on how the new law will fit within a federal law framework. It is important to remember that possession of marijuana is still a federal crime, punishable by jail time and other harsh penalties. There are also banking law issues at play, and those laws might make it hard for a dispensary to take anything other than cash.
