Title: Through the Haze - Medical Marijuana - The Law and Patient Rights

By: William R. McPike, Attorney at Law

Reviewed by: Elmore Stone

This is the one book medical marijuana patients and lawyers too, especially those in California, should not be without.

Though written by an attorney it was designed for easy reading and comprehension, and he succeeded admirably.

The book contains 13 chapters and 8 appendices covering such topics as:

• Becoming a "qualified" patient
• The difference between a prescription and a recommendation
• Why police can still arrest a qualified patient
• Patient tips, what to say, what to do, what not to say, what not to do
• Patient immunity from prosecution
• The fast track on raising patient immunity in court
• Full dismissal of charges without a trial
• Pertinent case law
• And a whole lot more

The coup de grace is -- complete examples of the pleadings and the paperwork, developed and used by the author in successfully defending medical marijuana clients.

Through the Haze is a digital only publication. You get a single CD-Rom which contains the book:

• In MS Windows format (.exe)
• In Adobe Acrobat format (.pdf) for other operating systems -- you will need the free Adobe Acrobat Reader
• Pleadings in the correct format -- WordPerfect format only

As you can see, people not using Windows are not left out in the cold.

Price:

• $25.00 (USD) each which includes shipping and handling

Method of payment:

• Check, must be drawn on a U.S. bank
• Money Order

Through the Haze is definitely worth every penny.
