US CA: Judge Upholds Moratorium Temporarily Closing Monterey

Monterey County Herald, 11 Oct 2010 – A judge on Friday effectively shut down any continuing operation of Monterey’s MyCaregiver medicinal-marijuana cooperative, ruling that the city’s temporary moratorium on dispensaries was legitimate. Judge Lydia Villarreal did not rule on issues regarding whether the city had zoning for dispensaries or whether MyCaregiver was required to have a business license, but granted the city’s request for summary judgment based on its moratorium.
