Interesting story out of Santa Barbara this week. A respected Superior Court judge ordered the Sheriff to return $620,000 in cash and 1,800 pounds — pounds — of cannabis oil to a licensed cannabis operator, finding no evidence the operation was unlawful.  Under state law anyway. Seems those who police California’s growing cannabis commerce need to keep their legal advisors close at hand. Here’s the story from Marijuana Business Daily.
