Three county cases among 38 in state filed by medical users entitled to cannabis

OAKLAND -- More than three dozen medical cannabis patients from 36 California counties filed simultaneous lawsuits Tuesday demanding the return of about $1 million worth of marijuana seized by law enforcement officers the past few years.

In all those cases, the plaintiffs proved they were medical marijuana patients and were never charged with possessing the drug, or they had charges against them dropped, according to the Berkeley nonprofit that organized the lawsuits. But they never got their pot back, and they want it now, or at least its cash value.

"There are (38) filing today, but this is just the beginning," said Steph Sherer, executive director of Americans for Safe Access, which coordinated the cases. "When we look at implementation of Proposition 215, it's surprising to see such a culture of resistance among law enforcement."

$1,000,000/38 = $26,315 of pot per person. WTF?

Yeah thats what they deserve.When they say each plant is worth 2-3thousand dollars of mmj thats what they should pay for. when cops make inflated claims they should have to pay at those claims its the only way for the abuse to stop.
