Montana v. Stoner
Annotate this CaseDefendant Shawn Stoner appealed a district court's order to deny his motion to dismiss several marijuana charges against him. The sole issue on appeal was whether the District Court erred in denying Defendant's motion to dismiss after he acquired a medical marijuana card. Upon review, the Supreme Court held that Defendant was required to have obtained and be in possession of a valid registry identification card at the time of the offense for which he sought immunity from prosecution. Because Defendant did not obtain a registry identification card until after he was charged, he was not entitled to dismissal of the charges against him.
