Rounding up some criminal justice postings from Marijuana Law, Policy & Reform

I suppose I would come off as a bit of a sativa Scrooge if I did not post something about marijuana on 4/20.  Because I have not done a round-up of posts from my blogging over at Marijuana Law, Policy & Reform in quite some time, I will use this very unofficial holiday as an excuse to round up some criminal justice postings from there.  A number of these posts involve terrific work by students in my seminar collecting readings on the topics of their research, so be sure to check them all out:

• Florida official sues feds, stressing Second Amendment and Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment, on gun purchasing limits for medical marijuana patients

• "Cannabis decriminalization and racial disparity in arrests for cannabis possession"

• Modern day Fiorello La Guardia?: US Senate candidate Gary Chambers smokes marijuana in new campaign ad protesting criminalization

• Guest post: "First Circuit Splits with Ninth Circuit Over Meaning of Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment"

• Notable Code for America paper on "Automatic Record Clearance Policies in Legalization and Decriminalization Legislation"

• Student presentation exploring marijuana records and broader record clearing realities

• Student presentation on expunging marijuana records effectively in Ohio

• Student presentation on marijuana reform and the Fourth Amendment
