Bromberg, Osbeck, and Vitiello raise many theoretical, practical, and public policy considerations in their casebook on marijuana law--a dynamic area of the law that is continually changing while courts, legislatures, and regulatory agencies work to keep up with the changing social sentiments that surround marijuana. Primarily targeting law students, their casebook will be suitable for lawyers and policy makers, or anyone looking to gain knowledge of marijuana law. They include material that teach how to extract legal principles and rules from cases, and also include the workings of modern American codes and administrative law. They provide excerpts from major U.N. drug conventions. As appropriate there are also excerpts from academics, commentators, and institutional bodies. The authors aim to provide a thorough grounding of the student in marijuana law, as well as a focused education in the following areas: interaction of state, federal, tribal and international authorities in legal issues of shared concern; federalism; criminal and constitutional jurisprudence, especially search and seizure; state constitutions and state administrative agencies; professional responsibility; controlled substances; international treaties; tax law; businesses in a controversial, growing, lucrative, and legally-complex industry. jurisprudence, especially search and seizure; and state constitutions. There are 21 chapters, an appendix, and a table of cases. Annotation ©2020 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR (protoview.com)
