Marijuana Law in a Nutshell

By Matt Thomas •  February 24, 2022
  •  

If you're looking for a comprehensive, compact book on marijuana law, the 2nd edition of Marijuana Law in a Nutshell is now available remotely on West Academic Digital Library. 

"It is organized by the basic divisions of marijuana law: by the dichotomy between federal and state law; and second, by the bifurcation between illegal and legal status of marijuana. As to federal law, the Nutshell details the Controlled Substances Act of 1970 (CSA), and the ramifications of marijuana’s placement on Schedule I—for law enforcement, hemp and CBD, scientific research, and international law."  Chapters include, "Overview—Marijuana Regulation in the United States", " Enforcement of the Controlled Substances Act", "Special Federal Jurisdictions", " Hemp and CBD", "Federal Banking Laws and the Marijuana-Related Business", "Taxation of Marijuana- Related Businesses" and "Medical Arguments for and Against Legalization".
