In 2015, California passed the California Medical Marijuana Regulation and Safety Act (MMRSA). MMRSA provides comprehensive regulation for medical marijuana use, sale, and cultivation.

Under the act, a comprehensive licensing system was created setting up rules for cultivating medical marijuana. Medical marijuana businesses no longer need to be set up as a nonprofit. And certain patients who qualify may grow marijuana for personal use.

Of course, MMRSA contains a wide variety of rules, regulations, and schemes in addition to the ones mentioned.

Failure to adhere to these rules may subject someone to criminal prosecution. It’s important to have a clear understanding of the rules and regulations before engaging in the sale of medical marijuana.
