The use of medical ma*****na becomes legal in Kentucky on Jan. 1, 2025. Of course, this raises a number of issues, including how law enforcement and the courts will handle DUI cases resulting from ma*****na use - even when it's used for medical reasons.

It's critically important to know and understand what the law says in this regard, so I've written a new blog post entitled, "Understanding Ma*****na DUI Laws in Kentucky: Penalties and THC Levels." You can read it on my website: https://lexingtoncriminallawyer.com/understanding-ma*****na-dui-laws-in-kentucky-penalties-and-thc-levels/

Feel free to share your thoughts on this matter by commenting below or at the bottom of the blog post. I'd love to hear what you have to say!

This is the biggest threat to democracy that we face. If the legitimacy of the Court falters, we are in trouble.

The inverted flag on Justice Alito’s flagpole violates nearly all of the court’s ethical rules.

Truth.

The flying of an inverted U.S. flag just days before President Joe Biden's inauguration at the home of Justice Samuel Alito was a "bald political statement that ruptures any semblance of impartiality for Justice Alito and the court," based on the rule of law, says Wyatt Tarrant & Combs Professor of Law Cedric Merlin Powell in The Hill: https://thehill.com/opinion/judiciary/4675218-alitos-inverted-flag-makes-a-mockery-of-the-supreme-courts-code-of-ethics/

As many of you know, I practice law primarily in the area of Criminal Defense, including Driving Under the Influence (DUI). I'm often asked whether it's advisable and legally permissible to refuse a DUI field test. So I decided to address the issue in the blog on my new DUI Defense website.
