16 INTRODUCTION
17 Defendant CRAIG CANADA is under the medical care and supervision of
18 ROBERT F. STERNER, JR., MD (CA Medical License No G51708) for the
19 treatment of Bipolar Disorder, Major Depression Recurrent, Carpal
20 Tunnel Syndrome and Muscle Spasms. Dr. STERNER deems the use of
21 cannabis helpful to CRAIG CANADA for this treatment of these chronic
22 conditions. He recommends CRAIG CANADA to use approximately five grams
23 of cannabis per day, as needed. On November 25, 2003, the Plaintiff,
24 BONITA MILLARD, with full knowledge of Defendant CRAIG CANADA'S
25 medical condition as well as his documented, legal use of marijuana,
26 informed the Morongo Valley Sheriffs Department that he, CRAIG CANADA,
27 was engaging in the unlawful cultivation and use of marijuana. CRAIG
28 CANADA was subsequently arrested for his actions.
