Legal Victory For Medical Marijuana



SAN FRANCISCO (KCBS/AP)  -- California's highest court has approved the issuance of government medical marijuana identification cards by refusing to consider a legal challenge to the law.

The state Supreme Court declined without comment to hear two cities' and a county's challenge to California's medical marijuana law and the issuance of state identification cards.

The lawsuit filed by San Diego, San Bernardino and Merced County in 2006 was tossed out by two lower courts.

The state Supreme Court's refusal to consider the case Thursday ends the matter.
