AG: MEDICAL MARIJUANA DOESN'T SPOIL CUSTODY CASES
LANSING ( AP ) - Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette says parents
who use medical marijuana aren't disqualified from having custody of
children or visiting them.
But Schuette says the immunity isn't absolute. He says it's
appropriate for a judge to determine whether there are unreasonable
dangers for children, similar to a parent's approved use of other
controlled substances.
The attorney general says a judge can't independently determine if a
parent should qualify to use marijuana.
Schuette's opinion was released Friday in response to a question by
state Sen. Rick Jones, R-Grand Ledge. The opinion refers to people
who are approved by the state to use marijuana to alleviate illnesses
or grow it for others.
