On Wednesday, December 6, a state judge upheld California's law permitting the use of marijuana for medicinal purposes and tossing out a lawsuit by three counties challenging the law. San Diego County sued the state and its health services director in February over a state requirement that counties issue identification cards for medical marijuana users. They were later joined by San Bernardino and Merced counties. Superior Court Judge William R. Nevitt Jr. wrote in his ruling that counties would not be breaking federal law by giving out state identification cards.
