A three-judge panel ruled on Thursday that the woman’s possession of a user card provided her legal protection for medically directed cannabis treatments.
PHOENIX — The Arizona Court of Appeals has ruled that state officials were wrong to put a woman who legally used medical marijuana while pregnant on an employment-related list indicating she had neglected a child through prenatal exposure of her infant.
The appellate court’s ruling overturned a decision by the state Department of Child Safety’s director and a ruling by a trial court judge. A spokesperson for the state Attorney General’s Office did not immediately respond Friday to a request for comment on the ruling and on whether the office would ask the Arizona Supreme court to review it.
