POT CAFE BACK IN COURT
By Hempology | September 15, 2005
FREDERICTON – A New Brunswick woman sentenced to a year in jail for operating a compassion club for marijuana users is returning to court to appeal her sentence.
Lynn Wood will appear before the Court of Appeal in Fredericton on Tuesday in hopes of overturning her conviction for trafficking in marijuana.
Although Wood was convicted in early June, she has served only 29 days in jail.
A Fredericton judge ordered her release earlier this summer so that she could deliver her fourth child at home.
The infant is now a month old.
Wood says her Cannabis Cafe in Saint John, N.B., was a compassion club where people could purchase marijuana for medicinal purposes. So far, the courts have not accepted that.
