As everyone in Connecticut who reads a newspaper knows, in the spring of 2012 the Connecticut legislature legalized medical marijuana in this state. The Department of Consumer Protection has put in place regulations to govern the use, production and sale of medical marijuana that are clear, thorough and strict. Applications to establish grow facilities and dispensaries have been filed with the Department, which announced on Jan. 28 which companies will receive licenses for grow facilities. Decisions as to who may operate a dispensary are expected in a few months.
Though abuse of any system is always a possibility, abuse of the medical marijuana system in Connecticut will be difficult given the very comprehensive regulatory structure.
