An Ionia County couple has filed a lawsuit against an Ionia County Sherriff's Deputy allegedly involved in a raid on the couple's home and subsequent seizure of the couple's marihuana plants.  This lawsuit places government officials in an unusual position of being asked to return marihuana, or its monetary equivalent, to citizens permitted to possesses marihuana for medical reasons.  This legal challenge, coming on the heels of the Wyoming lawsuit, should be viewed as a clear indication that communities must react and formulate guidelines and procedures regarding the Michigan Medical Marihuana Act, MCL 333.26421 et seq.  The Hubbard Law Firm, P.C. has established itself as a leader in creating sound public policy based on an individual community's characteristics.  For more information on the services available, please contact Andira M.
