in california what are your rights as a primary caregiver?

[sbprzn420]

Can you go to co-ops and buy marijuana for the patient under your care, or can you only possess it not buy it? can someone point me to a link showing the rights of a primary caregiver? thanks.

Im pretty sure you'd be able to buy, Depends on if the guy is chill or not. I heard it worked a few times with a flash of the card.

Under state law, the California Compassionate Use Act of 1996 (Prop. 215) exempts patients and their primary caregivers from criminal prosecution for personal possession and cultivation of marijuana, but NOT for distribution or sale to others.

State law was expanded in 2004 by a new law, SB 420 (Health & Safety Code 11362.7-8), which (1) authorizes caregivers who provide marijuana to patients to be compensated for the costs of their services, though not on a for-profit basis; and (2) allows patients to form cultivation "collectives" or "cooperatives." On careful examination, however, neither of these provisions provides a green light for sales of cannabis.
