State: Michigan
Could use alil info or ideas.
Im currently on felony probation in the state of michigan. I was busted with few ounces of cannabis, and explained in court, to my lawyer, and later my drug councelor my use of medical marijuana. My judge wasn't that bad, I was not charged as a dealer, but got a high misdemeanour charge, and get along well with my PO, and he pays very little attention to me as he says im the lowest on his pole of people he has to worry about. I don't pay for drug tests and do them once monthly. When i met my councelor she thought i had a unique case and so we did sessions 1 on 1 and not in a group. We talked alot about my disease and my pains, and she was very friendly and sympathetic, and even said if i feel i need to use medical marijuana do so so in use and not abuse it, and then she tought me mental methods to help ease pain. She feels medical mj is fine if really needed. Im done with counceling, ive done my jail time, and just been doing my monthly tests and paying off my fines.
I have a neurological disease, and so i have a good reason for getting a card, not just plain back pain or anything like that. I've heard plenty of stories on whether you can smoke on probation or not..so just looking for more info or ideas.
My plain is once my card comes in the mail to go straight to my PO and tell him my physician has recommended and signed me for the medical MJ program, and see if we can change my terms of probation. I have no problem finishing probation and testing for opiates or whatever they want, they pay for it anyways and if i can use my medical mj i have no reason to drink or use anything else anyways...Im technically off probation around october if i pay all my fines by then anyways, but i dont wanna wait that long, ive already been waiting enough time.
