My possession       license is for 30 grams a day and 900 grams carry. I has an       exemption for 6570 grams in my own home. I was not growing       at my designated address and the police say they counted 580       plants.              Many of the plants were unrooted clones and unsexed seeds. I       was about to attempt to share clones for three other       licensed growers who because of fear do not want to step       forward. My personal production number is 146 plants. I had       120 plants growing under 8 lights and the rest was       vegetative. My symptoms are increasing and I am wanting to       see another doctor.              Today I am off to my bail hearing. I was released last night       at around midnight after 6 hours of holding. The police came       in "hot" on February 17 in the morning. I was not there. My       landlady was thrown to the floor while four men with       automatics said things like "stay down or I will shoot".              They found 3 grams of cannabis and 1/4 gram of a mushroom in       her bedroom and charged her with possession. She showed them       the rental agreement I had signed and offered them the key.       They went to the adjacent garage a 525 square foot       unfinished building next door and took turns kicking the       door until they broke the frame.              JCT: Key? Who needs a key? The officers wanted to use their       boots. At least you've got their names to add to the story.              A building that does not yet have running water. My landlady       (the homeowner) and her roommate were taken in handcuffs to       the station and held and interrogated for about 8 hours. I       promised that if anything went "south" I would step forward       believing I was protected by health Canada.              When the police arrived at the landlady's house last night I       watched the officer knock on her door and then go around the       back. I live across the street, she told them that and no       mail or notice of any kind was issued. I waved to the police       officer and asked if anything was wrong. After introducing       myself he explained that I was under arrest.              I did not exactly resist arrest but I angered him while I       tried to produce my medicinal documents. He said hands       behind your back.. I said that is not necessary what is       going on, he said you are under arrest. He had a very       difficult time twisting my arm and then moved me from the       sidewalk against the building.... but whatever on that       part... no cameras. Anyhow.              The Landlady still has not seen the warrant that I recovered       from the floor in the garage.. a clearly separate building.       Meanwhile my Medicine in plant form was destroyed. No       cannabis was found as I was, and am, nowhere near my       personal supply needs. My license says I can have 6570       grams.              JCT: So a simple S.7 cultivation charge. They withdrew       against James Turner's 2,879 plants, against Ray's 500-plant       overlimit, like you, so why worry?              It makes no sense that they came in with a swat team when       they could have knocked on the door and asked for the key.              JCT: To those with only a hammer, everything looks like a       nail.              I believed I was acting appropriately. I am sending this to       you for your information and I am wondering what to do next?              MAR 16TH, 6:55PM       Ok. So I am confused. I called the Rossland provincial court       and said "what is the first day open for the hearing of a 20       minute motion? She had no idea what I was asking for. I said       criminal court? she said april 7. So.... what am I asking       for? Who do I talk to? I am going in person tomorrow... need       to know the lingo.       Are all of the offices I am looking for in the courthouse?       one to the crown office get signed and one to the       registry... where does the third form go?       so i called the provincial court house in rossland...that       was the error.. i have to contact the crown office in nelson       i just called the nelson crown office she had no idea what I       saying. april 7 is the day that a judge will be there              rossland court registry       Police file number 16-630 registry number 250-362-7368       (i will call this one tomorrow)              APR 1ST, 5:20AM       hello, i took your advice and had some fun today. after a       third attempt to file the quash at the courthouse i got the       address for the office of the crown prosecutor got him into       the library room and said, "you are served". He claimed that       did not mean any more than the information he gave me for       the proper place to file the motion. There really is no       office of the registry here (so far as I understand) and he       in return gave me the address of the office in Vancouver for       the filing of a motion... so maybe I fax them one? Anyhows..       thanks again. It was fun to say "you have been served"              APR 1ST, 10:11AM       Jct: As long as you served him, you can hand in the motion       to your next judge.       My first appearance is April 7 at 930.              The prosecuting attorney gave me the phone number for the       registry office in vancouver              THU 4:51PM       I really hate wasting your time... anyhows.. the police woke       up the landlady last night at around midnight to tell her       that she did not need to go to court in the morning.              got through court quickly... they did not take the service       of the motion and did not have disclosure ready. I was       informed that I am being charged with production of a       controlled substance and adjourned until may 12... so I will       get the motion in order in the vancouver registry office...       the trafficking charges against me and the landlady were       dropped.              I mean I was unable to give them any paper. The motion for       the reading of a 20 minute motion was adjourned.       I did not approach the bench with the quash or know how to       do that.              I served the motion to the crown... then had him in the       office when the commission signed page 19 when he told me I       would not be able to use that motion              The same woman that told me I could not file it in the court       room is the commissioner. She signed it.              no.. I took none of the commissioners advice that I could       not file motion at the courthouse so she gave me the address       of the prosecutor. Today when I learned that she was in fact       the commissioner I got her to sign the same document that       she refused to accept while the prosecutor who the document       was "served to" told me that I could not use that document       until I filed it. The judge refused to hear the "I would       like to ask for the hearing of a 20 minute motion" and              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
