Parents Using Medical Marijuana Losing in Child Custody Disputes
Posted on | June 21, 2010 | No Comments
Even though it’s been more than ten years since states began approving the use of marijuana for medical use, cases have shown that one parent’s use are impacting child custody disputes.
Laws may legalize the use of medical marijuana, but it hasn’t stopped judges, arbitrators, and attorney ad litems to consider a parent’s use of medical marijuana when determining a child custody battle. This is true despite some states even writing in its family law code that a parent’s use of medical marijuana should not be considered in a child custody dispute. Michigan and Maine specify that patients won’t lose custody or visitation rights unless the patient’s actions endanger the child or are contrary to the child’s best interests.
Judges and arbitrators generally side with parents that actively keep their children away from drugs. Medical marijuana activists in several states, including Washington, California and Colorado, say they’ve been getting more inquiries from patients wrapped up in custody-divorce cases in recent years as the number of people who use medical marijuana increases.
