|    TURMEL: MedPot Fearless Four ask Supreme    |

      From: johnturmel@yahoo.com              TURMEL: MedPot Fearless Four ask Supreme Court to reconsider exemptions              JCT: About 50 Gold Stars had filed motions for interim       exemptions to use marijuana for Personal Medical use while       their actions for repeal went on below which were denied by       Justice Phelan for an ATP being insufficient medical       evidence. 26 appealed and 4 had their motions for interim       exemptions pending appeal dismissed and applied for Leave to       Appeal to the Supreme Court of Canada.              Those wanting interim exemptions:              1) The Terry Parker whom the MMAR was mandated to exempt and       never did;              2) Stephen Burrows who was cut off in Manson J.'s decision       from finishing curing his tumor;              3) Robert Roy who was cut off because his exemption expired       while Manson was deliberating and then he didn't grandfather       it back to the date of the hearing but the date of his       decision;              4) Ray Turmel who did benefit from the Manson decision to       extend his MMAR exemption complaining the MMAR is still no       good and can't be changed.              Three judges of the Supreme Court of Canada rejected their       Applications for leave to appeal and they have now filed       their last word, an Application for Reconsideration.               File Number: 36146        IN THE SUPREME COURT OF CANADA        (ON APPEAL FROM THE FEDERAL COURT OF APPEAL)       BETWEEN:        Robert Roy        Applicant        Appellant in appeal        And        Her Majesty The Queen        Respondent               NOTICE OF APPLICATION FOR RECONSIDERATION        Robert Roy, APPLICANT        (Pursuant to Rule 73 of the Supreme Court Rules)              TAKE NOTICE that Applicant hereby applies for       Reconsideration of the dismissal of the Application for       Leave to Appeal No. 36146.              AND TAKE NOTICE the motion will be made on the grounds that       not reconsidering inflicts on a group of medical patients       conditions of viability calculated to bring about our       physical destruction.       For the Applicant:       Robert Roy        APPLICANT'S MEMORANDUM        Robert Roy, APPLICANT        (Pursuant to Rule 73 of the Supreme Court Rules)              PART I - OVERVIEW              1. In this application for reconsideration, I bring to the       attention of the Court the recent Dec 30 2014 ruling of       Justice Manson in response to the Dec 15 2014 ruling of       Federal Court of Appeal Justices Nadon, Webb and Boivin:        [18] While the judge carefully crafted and tailored        his order in a way that he considered minimally        intrusive into the legislative sphere (judge's reasons        at para. 121), it does not provide remedy to patients        who held valid production licences on September 30, 2013        but whose authorizations to possess expired between        September 30, 2013 and March 21, 2014 (the date of his        order). The judge's choice of March 21, 2014 as the        "cut-off" date has the effect of excluding Ms. Beemish        and Mr. Hebert from his order.        [19] With respect, the difficulty with the judge's        finding is that although he provides a right (the        interlocutory injunction) to the four (4) respondents -        Mr. Allard, Mr. Davey, Ms. Beemish and Mr. Hebert - he        does not, in contrast, explain why he deprives two (2)        respondents - Ms. Beemish and Mr. Hebert - of a remedy.        After careful reading of the judge's reasons, I am left        to speculate as to his intention.        [20] In these circumstances, I cannot address properly        the determination the respondents are seeking as I am        unable to understand whether the judge intended to        exclude Ms. Beemish and Mr Hebert or simply forgot to        deal with their situation. In other words, the judge's        reasons do not allow this Court to perform its appellate        function.        [21] After considering making an assessment of the        evidence, I believe that the wiser course is to return        the matter to the judge with a direction that he        specifically addresses the situation of Ms. Beemish and        Mr Hebert.        [23].. I would remit the matter back to the judge for        determination solely on the issue of the scope of the        remedy, more particularly with respect to Ms. Beemish        and Mr. Hebert, in accordance with these reasons.              2. Had Justice Manson expanded the relief, this Application       would have been mooted. But though the court of appeal could       not fathom why half the 30,000 self-producing patients       should have been Left-Out of the relief, Justice Manson       explained refusing to reconsider expanding the relief to       all:        Upon having regard to the Federal Court of Appeal's        decision dated December 15 2014...        THIS COURT ORDERS that:        [1] The Plaintiffs request a reconsideration of my        decision of Mar 21, 2014, to        (i) order that all patients that held a valid        Authorization to Possess (ATP) on March 21 2014, or in        the alternative, September 30 2013, are covered by the        Exemption Order I made, and to        (ii) order that all patients exempted by the Order,        including Mr. Hebert and Ms. Beemish, and others        similarly situated, can change their address form with        Health Canada pending trial.        [2] As stated above, the Federal Court of Appeal        remitted the issue of the scope of the interlocutory        injunction for clarification only, to specify whether        the injunction applied to Ms. Beemish and Mr. Hebert.        There is no reconsideration to be made and certainly no        expansion of the scope of my decision to apply to anyone        other than the plaintiffs in the proceeding.        [3] In considering the balance of convenience, I        specifically chose the relevant transitional dates of        September 30 2013 and March 21 2014 to limit the        availability of injunctive relief to extend only to        those individuals who held valid licenses to either        possess or produce marijuana for medical purposes as of        those relevant dates...        [4] Accordingly, only those plaintiffs who had a valid        license on September 30 2013 could continue producing        marijuana for medical purposes and only those plaintiffs        who held a valid authorization to possess marijuana for        medical purposes at the time of my decision on March 21        2014 could continue to so possess.        [5] In considering the balance of convenience, the        remedy I granted was intended to avoid unduly impacting        the viability of the Marijuana for Medical Purposes              [continued in next message]              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
