This makes me scratch my head... Have you read the state's constitution? A20 deals extensively with the registry and registration. Why would you make such a claim?Quote:

This is correct, My app was dated October, my redcard is dated May17ish, free 6 months! Although, that's six more months til I get my increased plant count, so boo.Quote:

I'm really not sure how they arrive at this since it does mention the registry in the amendment.Quote:

cologrower420,
You can do your own research:
Colorado General Assembly Home Page
http://www.leg.state.co.us/clics/cli...e=1284_enr.pdf
I have tested the validity of the card twice now. Once roadside, once on my front doorstep. Both times it protected me from arrest and actually garnered me respect from the officer who was sticking his nose in (what they now know is) my business. I shudder to think what would have happened in both situations had i showed them a copy of a form that can be (and is being) printed directly from the Internet and easily forged.Quote:

operating heavy equipment/trucks for hire
opening a pharmacy
opening a dispensary
I always operate under the fact that "my attorney" will not be sitting beside me in jail when I think about such things. If a license is available to you and you do not complete the process it will cost you a pretty penny and you will take a big risk overall in court to have your rights upheld, if in fact, they are upheld.
So who wants to test the law? Please report back with your findings and how much Corry made off of you to provide such info!
It seems like you are taking the viewpoint that you somehow can't get in trouble if you are A20 compliant but not 1284/109 compliant.Quote:

Or are you still referring to the affirmative defense if arrested? I think it's important to note whether you are saying to ignore 1284, or that in court, it won't hold up.
I guess I might be naive, but if I am not compliant with 1284/109, then I could get arrested or otherwise get in trouble. Are you saying that's not true? Are you saying that 1284/109 don't have any legal authority, no teeth? It kind of seems that instead of the dept. of health overseeing things (joke), now that the dept. of revenue will handle enforcement will not be a joke with enforcement.
Thoughts?
