These are some highlights from Joe Elford's oral argument on November 6, 2007 in a case dealing with a man who was fired from his job for using medical marijuana while off duty. More info on this case at http://druglaw.typepad.com/drug_law_blog/2007/11/cal-supremes-he.html
I have to agree with the court here.
Because current Federal Law has MJ as a schedule 1 drug, there is always a danger of being federally prosecuted for it's possession, even if the person possessing it can legally have it by state law. Employers should have the right to fire (or not hire) someone on these grounds. Fact of the matter: it is riskier to employ someone who is a MJ user, because if that person ever gets into legal trouble w/ the feds it could be an immense cost to the employer!

As long as the Federal Gov can add sex offence to the list of disabilities the law will be unjustly discriminatory. When one person can get marinol but a sex offender can't it is unlawful discrimination. One person working can have the insurance pay but due to fed law a sex offender can not have the same relief is archaic and punishment for no other reason than to punish. Strike these laws before it is too late.
