Petition filed with Supreme Court to challenge 1284
apply to be MMC's may now have their hands tied. They chose their team. They can't advise a client (MMC applicant) to fill out the forms (required by hb1284) and then support the calling of the same legislation (hb1284) as unconstitutional. They very well could be charged with mis advising their clients (MMC's).
Keep this in mind as we wonder why they did nothing on behalf of the patients--the patients didn't give them hundreds of thousands of dollars, the MMC's did.
So money won over doing whats RIGHT and just.
When I called Andrew Reid, he told me straight up--he was NOT an MMJ attorney. He had numerous calls from people asking to represent them and their dispensaries pre 1284. He declined ALL. He said I was the ONLY ONE who called asking about a constitutional action on everyone's behalf. And I asked Andrew to do whatever it took to get as many rights restored to as many people in Colorado as possible, as fast as we could, hence the Original Action to the CO Supreme Court. He took this case because it was the right thing to do for everyone.
The CO Supreme Court only hears 20% of the cases put before it. But Andrews law firm believes we have a solid case that could very well be heard due to urgency and the number of negatively impacted people statewide and it is a health concern. Send positive vibes to the court to do the right thing. I am remaining cautiously hopeful that justice will prevail and the court will hear the case.
(After all, Chris Romer promised to close down 80% of the businesses with hb1284 and most MMC applicants believe they will be the 20% who survive.) I'm gonna think like they do( Hahaha) and hope that my (our) petition will survive the Supreme Courts 80% rejection rate, because this is constitutional and negatively impacts people who are sick statewide who could further suffer loss of job, health insurance, kids, gov aid and even freedom or life.
