> "Virtually all wild hemp goes unharvested and presents no legitimate

> Alaska Court Narrows Marijuana Search Law
> Police Must Now Suspect That More Than Four Ounces Of Marijuana Is
> Involved
>     Anchorage, Alaska: Alaskan courts continue to observe that the right
> of privacy for adults also includes possession up to 4 ounces of
> marijuana. According to the Associated Press police cannot execute a
> search warrant in a person's home for possession of less than 4 ounces of
> marijuana, the Alaska Court of Appeals ruled last Friday.
>     The court ruled in the case of Leo Richardson Crocker, Jr., who was
> charged with marijuana-related offenses after police, acting on a tip,
> searched his home and found marijuana and growing equipment.  The opinion
> is the latest in a series of decisions that have carved out protections
> for possessing marijuana in an Alaskan home.
>     The state Supreme Court in 1975 ruled that an adult's rights to
> limited marijuana possession was protected under the state constitution's
> privacy provisions. Last year, the Appeals Court defined that limit as 4
> ounces. Further, the Appeals Court also struck down a 1990 voter
> initiative that criminalized possession of any amount of marijuana.

> Feds Back Down In CO Medical Marijuana Legal Case
> Return Marijuana Growing Equipment To Patient
>     Aurora, Colorado: Dana May, who suffers from chronic pain, won a major
> legal victory last week when the federal government agreed to return all
> of his marijuana-growing equipment.
>     The assistant U.S. attorney also informed NORML Legal Committee member
> and Mr. May's criminal defense attorney, Robert J Corry, Jr., that the
> feds will not prosecute May for any crime. However, the marijuana Mr. May
> was caught with will not be returned.
>     Executive Director of the NORML Foundation Allen St. Pierre said that
> Mr. May and his partner are genuine heroes for standing up to federal law
> enforcement and "advocating for the common sense principle that if medical
> marijuana is legal for approved patients in Colorado (and nine other
> states), and if the government fails to provide for safe and legal access
> to a physician-recommended medicine, then Mr. May is guilty at worse of
> self-preservation."
>     May's doctor signed his legal forms in 2002 permitting him to grow and
> use marijuana under Colorado law to help treat his chronic pain in his
> legs and feet as a result of a 1995 accident. Mr. May called his victory
> bittersweet and complained that anti-drug personnel should target hard
> drug sellers rather then "going after little pot growers like me."
>     "I think this is a big step because the DEA giving my equipment back
> they know what I'm going to do with it and it's like they're condoning
> it," said Mr. May.
