“A group that advocates on behalf of medical marijuana patients has asked the nation’s highest court to decide whether marijuana is a dangerous drug with no medical value.  Americans for Safe Access on Monday appealed a District of Columbia Circuit Court decision that upheld marijuana’s federal Schedule I status.  In their appeal, ASA contends the D.C. Circuit Court was wrong to equate ‘currently accepted medical use’ with only FDA-approved studies. The D.C. Circuit Court also ‘simply ignored that marijuana has an extremely low abuse potential relative to other controlled substances, despite having been presented voluminous evidence,’ according to the appeal.”
