Be interesting to see how this plays out. According to the article, the lawsuit also includes another minor, a military veteran, and former San Francisco 49ers defensive end Marvin Washington. “This lawsuit stands to benefit tens of millions of Americans who require, but are unable to safely obtain, Cannabis for the treatment of their illnesses, diseases and medical conditions,” notes the lawsuit that was filed in the Southern District of New York.

The U.S. tends to have its head in the sand when it comes to medical marijuana. Just yesterday, the VA said it won't study medical marijuana's effect on veterans. See
