Cover STORY:
LA Judge Shuts
Down Marijuana
Delivery App
NATHAN FOISY
STAFF EDITOR
A federal judge in Los Angeles has ordered the shut down
of the medical marijuana delivery app Nestdrop, which
facilitated the delivery of patients medicine to their homes.
Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge Robert OBrien
issued the injunction after City Attorney Mike Feuer
sought to end the businesss practices, stemming from
the violation of Proposition D, which limits the number
of storefront dispensaries and explicitly bans delivery
services.
Nestdrop co-founder Michael Pycher told the Los Angeles
Times earlier this month, Nestdrop is the technology
platform that connects law abiding medical marijuana
patients with local dispensaries to receive the medication
that they need in a safe and secure manner.
The Company has stated, While we agree with certain
aspects of Proposition D, we believe the prohibition on
delivery services is unnecessary and enforcement is a
misuse of taxpayer funds In fact, delivery services minimize
the need for storefront dispensaries in residential areas
a point of issue in Proposition D as these services bring
the medicine directly to patients, no matter the location.
The city sued Nestdrop in hopes of preventing them from
doing any further business in the area, as well as inhibiting
any future plans along the same lines. Interestingly enough
however, the app will continue to facilitate alcohol deliveries
to homes while considering options how to operate in the
medical marijuana industry as well.

Medicated
Barbeque Ribs
meDIBLE rECIPES
Ingredients:
6 apples - peeled, cored & sliced
2 tablespoons white sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground
cinnamon
1 cup brown sugar
3/4 cup old-fashioned oats
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 cup cold cannabutter
Yummi Karma Edibles infused BBQ sauce for dipping
Directions:
Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Place ribs on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Scatter 4 cloves of
sliced garlic over ribs. Cover, and bake for 2 1/2 hours. Cool slightly.
In a small bowl, mix together white sugar, paprika, salt, black pepper, chili powder, and ground cumin. Rub spices
over cooled ribs. Cover, and refrigerate overnight.
In a small saucepan, mix together brown sugar, cider vinegar, ketchup, chili sauce, Worcestershire sauce, lemon
juice, onion, dry mustard, and 1 clove garlic. Simmer over medium-low heat, uncovered, for 1 hour. Reserve a small
amount for basting; the remainder is a dipping sauce. Preheat grill for medium heat.
Place ribs on grill. Grill, covered, for about 12 minutes, basting with the reserved sauce, until nicely browned and
glazed. Serve with Yummi Karmas infused BBQ sauce for dipping.
Directions:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Spray a baking sheet with cooking spray. Clean mushrooms with
a damp paper towel. Carefully break off stems. Chop stems extremely fine, discarding tough end of stems. Heat oil
in a large skillet over medium heat. Add garlic and chopped mushroom stems to the skillet. Fry until any moisture
has disappeared, taking care not to burn garlic. Set aside to cool.
When garlic and mushroom mixture is no longer hot, stir in cream cheese, Parmesan cheese, black pepper, onion
powder and cayenne pepper. Mixture should be very thick. Using a little spoon, fill each mushroom cap with a
generous amount of stuffing. Arrange the mushroom caps on prepared cookie sheet. Bake for 20 minutes in the
preheated oven, or until the mushrooms are piping hot and liquid starts to form under caps.

Directions:
Place cubed potatoes into a large kettle and cover with water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat
to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the potatoes are just tender, 15 to 20 minutes. Drain and spread the potatoes
onto baking sheets in a single layer. Chill the potatoes in the refrigerator until cold, about 2 hours.
Mix the cooled potatoes, red onion, egg, mayonnaise, barbeque sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a large bowl.
Sprinkle with paprika if desired.

Competition
For Tribal Land

STAFF EDITOR
It appears that the 326 federally recognized American
Indian reservations (according to the Bureau of Indian
Affairs) have been given the green light to grow and sell
marijuana on tribal lands without fear of prosecution.
The Department of Justice recently released a three
page memo announcing that the federal government
will not prosecute Native Americans growing and selling
marijuana on tribal lands. The new federal policy will allow
tribes interested in growing and selling marijuana to do so,
if they maintain robust and effective regulatory systems,
according to John Walsh, the U.S. attorney for Colorado.

Former Alaska United States Senator Mike Gravel has
been appointed head of the cannabis company Kush, and
will be overseeing the marketing and developing of its
marijuana products. The 84 year old, former Senator
who ran for U.S. President in 2008, will now be working
to give patients the medicine they need for medicinal and
recreational use, including a lozenge called Kubby.
Gravel served as the US Senator for Alaska from 1969
to 1981. He has been a prominent and proactive voice
in the war on drugs, as well as a respected cannabis
advocate (partly due to his own medical reasons for
using marijuana). Steve Kubby, current Chairman of the
Board for Cannabis Sativa, Inc., stated, Senator Gravel
stood up to Nixon, stood up to the Pentagon, and now
he is standing up to those in power who would keep
the healthful benefits of cannabis from those who need
them. Hes been a director of Kush since its inception
and brings invaluable perspective and connections to our
group. Hes a true American hero and were excited to
have him serving in this capacity.
Senator Gravel has worked on several committees,
including the Public Works, Interior, Finance, and
Environmental branches, as well as being instrumental
in getting Congressional approval for the Trans-Alaska
Pipeline in 1973. His political experience, innovative
and forward-thinking mindset have no doubt given him
invaluable knowledge to bring to cannabis reformation
and his work with the Cannabis Sativa, Inc. Gravel said,
Im anxious to assist in bringing this important resource
to a broader market in a serious and credible way.
Cannabis Sativa, Inc. researches and develops a number
of specialized cannabis products from topicals to edibles,
as well as cosmetics and oils.

COLORADO RESIDENTS TO
RECEIVE WEED TAX CREDIT
NATHAN FOISY
STAFF EDITOR
Colorado Residents may receive a windfall tax refund
or credit next year in the range of $60 to $107 million
due to the new tax on recreational cannabis. The states
Taxpayer Bill of Rights, or TABOR, sets limits on how much
the government can tax its residents, and if that limit is
exceeded, refunds may be given out.
The actual amount will not be determined until the end of
the 2015 fiscal year. The rebate or credit would then be
applied on the 2016 tax forms. However, the Colorado
Legislature will determines how the rebate will be used or
distributed.
While most Colorado residents would prefer a cash
rebate, a direct refund may not be given at all. Rather,
several options of how the State would keep and
distribute the money are on the table. Residents might be
given a credit on next years tax bill, or be given a lower
sales tax rate.
Another major concern for Colorado and Washington
alike is the arduous tax on recreational marijuana in
competition with the lower rate for the medical marijuana
counterpart. The number of medical marijuana patients
has increased significantly, instead of the expected
decrease, since recreational use has become legal.
Officials are looking into ways to bridge the gap of taxation
over recreational use verses medical use of marijuana
equitably without over burdening current medical patients.
Rick Garza of the Washington Liquor Control Board raised
the question, How can you have two parallel systems, one
thats regulated, paying taxes, playing by the rules, and the
other thats not doing any of those things?
Many residents using recreational marijuana are
continuing to be labeled as medical patients, meaning they
pay lower tax rates. An equitable solution for this gap may
be part of the Legislatures discussions over what to do with
the rebate funds. Hopefully any solution proposed will not
adversely impact legitimately sick patients. Teri Robnett,
founder of the Cannabis Patients Alliance, commented, I
dont want to wind up cracking down on people abusing
the system in a way that negatively impacts the patients
and the people who help them.

Nearly all of the nations banks wont take the risk of accepting
money from marijuana sales. The banks wont do business with
growers, processors, retail shops and medical dispensaries,
or with their employees and contractors. They dont offer basic
checking or credit card services to the industry for fear theyll be
shut down by federal authorities for trafficking in illegal narcotics,
the same federal law that covers Ecstasy and heroin, that is up
until November 19, 2014. That was the day Colorado banking
regulators granted the marijuana oriented Fourth Corner Credit
Union a charter! That charter is near the end of the process for the
Union to go open their doors (expected to be as soon as this month)
and now the union is waiting for the Federal Reserve to issue it a
master account number, which would give it access to the countrys
electronic banking system. Colorado regulators have indicated they
will honor Colorado laws and allow the Union to open once final
Federal Approval is authorized.
Taylor West, deputy director of the National Cannabis Industry
Association and its 800 members, said the biggest problem
members have is there is no bank or credit union to handle all the
money.
The countrys 2,000 retail shops and medical dispensaries produce
a huge amount of cash (estimated to be around 2-3 billion last year),
which makes them prime targets for criminals. Another major
problem is record keeping. Without bank accounts, the industry has
to rely solely on cash which complicates paying the taxes that states
impose on cannabis as well as paying their employees and vendors.
Jennifer Calvery, director of the Treasurys Financial Crimes
20
Enforcement Network, said in August that only 105 banks and credit
unions a tiny fraction of the more than 100,000 in the U.S. take
money from legal marijuana businesses.
The Fourth Corner Credit Union will be the first to actually open and have
business members that are openly involved in the marijuana industry. It
holds the promise of getting an estimated $650 million in proceeds of
annual cannabis sales per year in Colorado off of the streets and into
a safe and well-regulated environment with a cutting-edge anti-money
laundering compliance unit. The Fourth Corner founders state that
anyone with an interest in the marijuana industry would be eligible to
join Fourth Corner. It will look no different than any other credit union.
Yet, the credit union still has hurdles ahead. Fourth Corner has applied
for federal deposit insurance, but the application review may take up
to two years say the organizers. But due to a Colorado banking law,
state-chartered credit unions can open while federal deposit insurance
is pending and in addition will have a federally approved surety bond
protecting against theft, according to the organizers. State Law allows
the credit union, if denied, to ask the Colorado Division of Financial
Services to allow it to operate under private deposit insurance,
according to state law.
This may be a huge step forward t words incorporating the marijuana
business into a the main stream business image, like liquor stores, that
accept credit cards, put their funds in the bank or credit union and go
to sleep a lot less worried they may get ripped off or worse from all that
money the banks wont take. (Who would have imagined banks dont
want our money.) Hopefully the (reverse IE too much) money problems
may be on they wain. Yet to be determined. DC
Stay tuned for our feature article on The Hemp and Credit Union of
Washington, set to open in May 2015.
