FORMER DISPENSARY SUES VALLEJO OVER POT RAID

The owners of a former Vallejo medical marijuana dispensary raided by police last year are suing the city for alleged abuse of power, excessive force and retaliation.

Plaintiffs Daniel and Rhonda Chadwick operated Homegrown Holistic Cooperative, Inc.  at 215 Tennessee St., which shut down after being raided by police on Aug.  10, 2012.  It was one of at least six dispensaries raided by police last year; however, all of the cases fell apart because, lawyers argued, police didn't understand California law.

The plaintiffs are seeking unspecified damages.
