California Court of Appeal

Judgment finding that defendant violated his probation by possessing concentrated cannabis is reversed, where: 1) the trial court violated defendant's due process rights by erroneously precluding him from presenting the affirmative defense that he was permitted to possess concentrated cannabis pursuant to the Compassionate Use Act; and 2) there is insufficient evidence to support the finding that defendant's violated his probation by possessing concentrated cannabis, as he has an adequate physician's recommendation.
