Hi,

If you are in the situation of being arrested for growing, I believe an honest approach the best. I would go for a trial by jury and state the case in terms of growing and using marijuana for medical reasons. I believe most average people, the kind that sit on a jury, would be sympathetic to a person growing and using if it is shown to be a medical need. If a jury thinks you are a big time dealer, you may get screwed, but if you use and grow for medicine to help yourself or others, you may just win their sympathy. Of course, a good lawyer is essential and your record will have a lot to do with how the outcome is.

Before anything happens, find a lawyer in your area that can help in this situation. Pay for a consult if you have to but hire them in advance. If anything goes down, call them first, say NOTHING and wait for your lawyer.

if after having consulted competent legal counsel and you find that you have no other recourse, you could make a plea of civil disobedience because the legal prohibition against cannabis (Schedule 1) is based on lies and therefore unjust. one of the founding cornerstones of the USA is civil disobedience and if it can be used to get the judge to consider the merits of Schedule 1, who knows?
