Medical Marijuana in Florida: is it a Possibility?
2012-12-12
After the legalization of recreational marijuana use in Colorado and Washington in the 2012 election, Florida residents may be wondering about similar laws passing in Florida.

After the 2012 election, the Florida Cannabis Action Network made plans to meet with Florida's attorney general to advocate for the reclassification of marijuana -- changing it so that is recognized as having medicinal ...
New Louisiana Informant Law Leads to Prisoner Release

Medical Malpractice Claims in the Wake of Missouri Decision Striking Down Damage Caps
2012-12-12
Caps on medical malpractice awards were part of an aggressive tort reform platform in the mid-2000's. One rationale behind the damage cap legislation was to lower insurance premiums in an effort to attract and keep physicians. Unfortunately, even after states passed damage caps, liability insurance premiums did not decrease and the caps have harsh unintended consequences for some injured by the negligence of medical professionals.
In 2005, Missouri passed legislation capping non-economic damages at $350,000. Non-economic damage awards compensate victims for pain and ...
