Colorado Medical Marijuana Code

The Colorado Medical Marijuana Code outlines the laws regulating the use, possession, cultivation, and distribution of medical marijuana in Colorado. It sets standards for qualifying patients and caregivers, establishes licensing requirements for dispensaries and growers, and ensures safety and compliance. The law permits patients with qualifying conditions to use marijuana legally for medical purposes while implementing restrictions to prevent misuse. It also specifies health and safety regulations to protect public health, creates a legal framework for enforcement, and defines penalties for violations, all aimed at balancing patient access with community safety and regulation.
