Pot patients sue state of Colorado for using registry fees for research grants

Medical marijuana patients are suing the Colorado Department of Public Health and Environment over patient fees.

The lawsuit comes as the state’s Medical Marijuana Scientific Advisory Council recommends eight research grant proposals for consideration by the Board of Health.
