Tainted Compassion Court Date on March 26th: Message from Tainted: We will be appearing before the Honorable Claudia Wilken for our initial appearance before the district judge who will handle the trial and sentencing issues for our case. Please save the date, as we hope to make a strong showing for the Judge that will be responsible for our fate. It is imperative that we let the community and justice system know that our movement stands strong. On Wednesday March 26th we will appear for the first time in front of the District Judge that will be handling our case until its conclusion, wether that be trial or sentencing. We look forward to everyone joining us in a show of solidarity, as we continue our fight to protect patients and providers rights in medical cannabis states. Court will begin at 2:30 p.m. at 1301 Clay St. in Oakland. Please come out and let the world know that we will no longer stand for these injustices in our community. Thank you.”
