In a recent article titled “Medical Marijuana: It’s Here. It’s Legal. What Business Leaders Need to Know,” published by
Smart Business, Attorney Bret Kravitz comments on Ohio’s Medical Marijuana Control Program.
House Bill 523 authorized a basic framework – legalized medical marijuana for qualifying medical conditions, but prohibited its use by smoking or combustion – and made Ohio one of 28 states to establish a public medical marijuana program.
