Members of the campaign against Utah’s medical marijuana initiative filed a lawsuit in state court Wednesday, seeking to keep the issue off the November ballot. It is their second lawsuit to block voters from weighing in on legalizing the federally illegal plant.
The group, calling itself Drug Safe Utah, says the ballot measure is “unconstitutional" and “could not become law even if it passed."
The group, backed by the Utah Medical Association and the attorney Walter Plumb, is asking the court for an injunction that would keep the measure, known as Proposition 2, off the ballot.
