Conviction and Sentence Reduced for San Diego Man Accused of Selling Marijuana

On January 6, 2010, it was reported that a local San Diego resident facing drug charges was able to have his charges reduced to misdemeanors. The San Diego resident was found not guilty in December of the major drug sale charges that were brought against him. Moreover, at the sentencing on January 6, 2010 the judge held that he had served enough time in custody to not have to pay the $839 fine.

The accused in this case was involved in a medical marijuana collective in San Diego. Medical marijuana collectives are legal in California, but San Diego has yet to adopt an ordinance that effectively regulates such collectives. In fact, the San Diego City Council recently declined to implement the recommendations of the medical marijuana task force that it commissioned.
