Texas: Medical Marijuana Dispensary Opens Near Austin

February 8, 2018 at 6:01 pm / Cannabis News, Cannabis Politics, Medical Marijuana

One of Texas’ first cannabis dispensaries opens today, but it looks nothing like the ones in states where recreational marijuana is legal. At Compassionate Cultivation’s dispensary near Austin, customers won’t find marijuana to smoke or pot brownies and gummy bears to eat. One product is for sale: a specific kind of cannabis oil. Only Texans with intractable epilepsy can purchase it. With its front desk, couches and chairs and piles of children’s books and magazines, the dispensary resembles a clinic or the waiting room of a doctor’s [...]

Thursday morning, Texas state Representative Joe Moody, surrounded by police officers and a retired judge, took a lectern at the Texas Capitol to argue for something he’s pushed hard for over the last two legislative sessions — the decriminalization of marijuana possession. “This discussion about marijuana policy in Texas has come a very long way in the last couple of years,” Moody said Thursday. “I think that our constituents and the people we represent want to see a reform in our [...]

A Texas administrative law judge recently recommended that no disciplinary action be taken against a public school teacher who admitted eating a marijuana edible while visiting Colorado over Christmas vacation. In a January 10 decision that was published last Friday by the Austin American-Statesman, Judge William Newchurch likens the teacher’s cannabis consumption to gambling in Las Vegas. “Possession of a usable quantity of marijuana is a criminal offense in Texas—but so is gambling,” Newchurch writes. “The ALJ [administrative law judge] [...]

We’re not actually sure that Willie will be revisiting “Card Tricks With Willie,” [...]

It took more than twelve years for 38 year-old Jeremy Bourque to sharpen his grow skills to the point where he could produce quality cannabis that effectively treated his seizures.

Since the age of 18, Jeremy has been using medical cannabis to do what no man-made medication has [...]

Could Legalization of Marijuana Be in Texas’s Future?

As you drive up the long, gravel-lined drive of the small clapboard house in south Texas, not much seems unusual. An old hunting dog suns himself on the porch, and the modest decor of the peeling front porch — a weathered rocker and a swing — drips with small-town charm. You’d never guess that it’s quite modern inside, though. Just beyond the front door sit not only tidy living quarters, but a sophisticated cannabis grow house presided over by a [...]

Over zealous law enforcement officers may want to heed this warning: search warrants are not bullet proof, and even suspected drug dealers have the right to protect themselves against intruders. At least that is the ruling of one Texas jury, who earlier last week, declined to indict alleged marijuana grower Henry Goedrich Magee in the shooting death of a Burleson County sheriff’s deputy that entered his home with a search warrant. Sergeant Adam Sowders and a team of investigators showed up at [...]
