How do I Use My Medical Marijuana Card MMID?
Patients and legal representatives should carry their Medical Marijuana Use Registry identification card (MMID) at all times. You MUST present your card to a medical marijuana treatment center in order to purchase your marijuana or a marijuana delivery device. Also, presenting your card to law enforcement is very helpful in assisting to verify that you are on the Medical Marijuana Use Registry, in the unfortunate circumstance this becomes necessary. A qualified patient or caregiver in possession of marijuana or a marijuana delivery device who fails or refuses to present his or her marijuana use registry identification card upon the request of a law enforcement officer is committing a 2nd degree misdemeanor and may be sentenced up to 60 days in jail and a $500.00 fine. Avoid a penalty for illegal possession. Having an medical marijuana card MMID never has a bad day.
