Judge rejects lawsuit over pot

Santa Barbara loses its fight against a statute that makes the private use if marijuana by adults the city's lowest crime-fighting priority. The law is similar to those passed in at least 10 other cities in the US, including Oakland, San Francisco, Santa Cruz, Santa Monica, and West Hollywood. The city's lawsuit was the first legal challenge to such laws, according to Adam Wolf. After Poet was sued, she countersued, citing a state law intended to quash litigation known as strategic lawsuits against public participation.

I kind of agree with the Judge because it is the judges decision to make a rejection. The judges are not rejecting for no reason. They have a reason to reject the lawsuit over pot. So i agree with this article
