California Court of Appeal
City of San Jose v. MediMarts, Inc., 042481
In a City's action to collect unpaid business taxes from marijuana business defendants, the trial court's denial of defendant's preliminary injunction against the City is affirmed over defendants' contention that payment of the Marijuana Business Tax, San Jose Municipal Code, section 4.66.010 et seq., would force defendant to incriminate himself in violation of his Fifth Amendment privilege by admitting criminal liability for violating federal drug laws, where the privilege against self-incrimination has no application in these circumstances.
