Charles Lynch of Arroyo Grande pleaded not guilty to charges in August. His trial is scheduled for the spring, he said.
In March, San Luis Obispo County sheriff’s officials and federal Drug Enforcement Administration agents raided Charles Lynch’s dispensary, Central Coast Compassionate Caregivers, at 780 Monterey Ave.
The business was the county’s only medical marijuana dispensary when it was closed down permanently after federal authorities contacted his landlord, Bob Davis. They told Davis his property could be seized if he continued renting it for dispensary use.
At least one victory for medical marijuana was won over the past year when Grover Beach police returned 20 grams of marijuana to Ken Parson in January, Koory said.
Parson was arrested in Grover Beach for possession of marijuana. But Koory argued that Parson’s prescription was allowed under state law.
Grover Beach police were required to return the marijuana to Parsons or pay a $5,900 fee.
