THE LAW SAYS OTHERWISE

Re "Pot-bust flashback" (Newslines, by Vic Cantu, Nov. 8):

It would seem that DA Ramsey is not reading his mail. If he were, 
he'd be aware of the decision published on Oct. 24 by the state 
appellate court in San Diego. The People v. Jovan Jackson shows Butte 
County's decision to prosecute the Tognolis as nothing but 
vindictiveness. Jovan clearly states that storefront dispensaries are 
legal under certain circumstances.

With Jovan, the county has no case against the Tognolis, but it does 
have the will to drag them through the courts, on our dime, obviously 
with hopes of further financially ruining them.

San Diego may be a long distance from the courthouse in Oroville, but 
it is still within the same California.
