Mr. Assenberg appealed the decision.

[*5] Assenberg v. Anacortes Housing Authority, 268 Fed.Appx. 643, 2008 WL 598310 (9th Cir. 2008).

Whaley dismissed the case, stating that "there is no fundamental constitutional right to possess and use marijuana for medical reason." Id.

So this seems a bit out of the ordinary to be asking these type of questions...now the pain unrelieved by standard medicines and treatment would qualify, yet you posed a state v. fry question which is a disqualification under the act..:wtf::wtf::wtf:
