When I got my referral I let the dispensary send out my papers. I have no proof of mailing because I ASSumed since they did it I was cool. So obviously I need to ask them for that but in the mean time I can't go to any other dispensaries?

ask them for it or you can switch. however on the health dept. website you are supposed to mail it yourself. confusion in the mmj arena is plentiful.
meded so you can mededicate to mededitate
That is correct. You're supposed to mail it in yourself, and they make that very clear I think. Of course not everyone knows where to go to get the info. I guess some just go by whatever hearsay.Quote:

Good luck! :pimp:
Thanks guys - thing is, I did check out the health dept. website first and, again, ASSumed since they offered to do it I must have been mistaken when I thought I had to do it myself. So now what?
cross fingers I guess?
Some dispensaries don't ask for proof of mailing. If they do, tell them what happened or just go to another one. It's not like there is about 300 in the Denver area to check out. I would imagine there's a couple who don't care as long as you have a Doc's recommendation. Technically that's all thats required, it's voluntary to register with the State. I know guys who just have a letter from their Dr and it's what they carry around with them. Of course they don't visit many dispensaries so not sure how they works for them at those places.
Can you point me in the direction where I might find that written into the law/amendment?Quote:

I've been searching and I can't find anything official on the Colorado MMJ website indicating registration is voluntary.

No one can MAKE (does that somehow make it easier to read or something?) you register. It's only as a means to provide an easy way for law enforcement to verify your recommendation. Read the Constitution & the Revised Statues. It's all in legalise but it's plain as day in there. If you have a debilitating condition and a doctor's recommendation - no Colorado court is going to sentence to jail. Might rack up some legal fees, but you'll get off. The po-po might give you some headache, but you'll still get off. It's not the way I would go about things, but some people are paranoid about being on any registry any where any kind.
The thing I've heard is best is to ask for a return receipt. This will show that the registry actually received what you sent.
No, I highlighted the part in my first post so that you would understand thats what my question was about. I've never heard this before and given that my application was rejected over some stupid penmanship issue (not my penmanship - the notary's penmanship) and a notary stamp - I'm a little pissed at the registry and if I can LEGALLY purchase/posses medicine without registering and giving the state my money just to be a patient - I'll do it. As far as I'm concerned, the registry can suck my sweaty ball sack. Can't believe they rejected my application because the notary signed my paperwork and accidentally wrote a little ink over her own damn stamp. :mad:Quote:

Thanks

EDIT:
Here's the Constitution:
Colorado: Department of Public Health and Environment, Colorado Medical Marijuana Registry
If you know a specific paragraph or section indicating registering is optional - please let me know. I'll print it out and carry it with me, along with my doctors prescription.
Can you go and get a reciept from the dispensary showing that you paid all the fees at least? I bet the dispensary put your return address-how could the registry tell if you didn't send it in? I wouldn't worry about it, but in the future I'd do it yourself :)Quote:

The "60 day" waiting time from the DR signiture was originally so that you could wait to get your card in. But the registry just hired a bunch of temp work, so the cards should be coming shortly. They are hoping with the revenue to hire more workers that are permanant.
