Big changes for medical marijuana users medical
marijuana patients have no right to privacy
Return To OnlinePot's
Legal Section Main Page
Side Note: I see this as a huge decision as it may
discourage patients from signing up
with state registries for fear of that information being turned over to the
feds for investigation.

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) - According to a Michigan federal court judge on
Friday, medical marijuana patients have no right to privacy.
Federal Judge Hugh Brenneman Jr. ruled that Michigan medical marijuana
patients have no right to privacy when it comes to a federal investigation
involving marijuana. In short, medical marijuana patients should not expect
the information they give to the state to receive a registration card will
be kept from federal investigators.
This ruling comes despite a provision in the state's Medical Marijuana Act
which promises patients their information will be kept private.
The state law previously approved by voters makes it a misdemeanor for a
government employee to disclose confidential information about a registered
medical marijuana patient or care giver.
That provision put state workers at odds with federal investigators who had
a subpoena for information on certain patients. According the the law, those
in violation could face up to six months in jail and a fine of up to $1,000.
However, the federal law that made marijuana illegal supersedes Michigan's
law, giving patients a defense in certain instances, explained Judge
Brenneman.
Michigan Attorney General Bill Schuette asked the court to give state
workers immunity from prosecution if they were forced to violate the privacy
section of the law.
Therefore, the law is void when it comes to federal investigators.
According to court documents obtained by 24 Hour News 8, Judge Brenneman
said there was no need to give state workers immunity in this case.
