A D.C. judge has ruled that a man who smokes medical marijuana in his apartment must stop after a neighbor complained that the odor from his marijuana crept into her home and caused a nuisance.

    Yeah, for sure. Even though I disagree with it, I understand it (despire her seemingly going for the nuclear option).

    It’s an apartment complex which likely is already a no-smoking environment. Logically speaking, cannabis smoke shouldn’t get an exception. The order just seems to prohibit the man from smoking, so I assume other methods are still on the table.

    Pretty much everyone I know with a medical card uses a vaporizer. Little to no smell and much easier on the lungs. That, or edibles.

      How would the courts treat making your own home edibles? Cause that process is smelly as well.

        I don’t agree with the ruling, or the sentiment, but making edibles is a periodic process. Smells once per week is a lot different than pot smoke several times per day, every day.
