Pardon me if I haven't read the entire thread through...I'm not in a 25 mile proximity yet but very close...when looking at the dispensary map I noticed that one closest to me advertises "delivery only". Do you think they are counted as a 25 mile impingement to cultivation rights? I can order pizza delivered to my house but no law is stupid enough to stop me from making my own.

It's not a dispensary if it is delivery only.

So the lawsuit won but they are saying hold your breath and pray for them back but don't expect it? How does that work?

When they issue these new cards with the color stripes it better say "Authorized to Cultivate".

Yep, my roommate just got a new caregiver card for one of his patients in the sticks and it has the red stripe and "authorized to grow" on it.

The state constitution provides for equal protection also.

Simplest way though is to just run a ballot initiative every fucking election till it wears them down and legalize it. Just a matter of time. I'l vote for any marijuana law which is more progressive than the current one.

No lawsuit won. Maybe Bill Hayes will hire a Attorney next time he tries to sue. My new caregiver cards have a red stripe on them.

Bill's legal advisers are wise to note that the state doesn't have any power to amend the 25-mile rule because it was already in the ballot initiative. In a nutshell, if the state could change the law to remove the 25 mile restriction, there isn't any element of the law that they couldn't change. Meaning, they could end the program altogether, and trust me, if this legislature could do that, they would have done it. But AZ state law doesn't allow for that kind of amendment, fortunately or unfortunately, for a voter-initiated ballot proposition that becomes law.

Removing the 25-mile rule will require a separate ballot initiative to amend the AMMA. If we could do that, we could just legalize. Or end up losing the AMMA that we have now. Let's not forget that it _barely_ passed, and that a lot of the people who voted for it have left the state for greener pastures in the last few years, and that right-wing activism is at an all time high this election year.

Please tell me why it's taking so long for a decision on this lawsuit
