By Jessica Travis on Tuesday, August 6, 2013
In the latest effort to legalize medical marijuana in the Sunshine State, attorney John Morgan is using his prominent status in the Orlando legal community as well as a hefty sum of his own financial backing to push two bills through the Florida Legislature onto the 2014 ballot. With support from People United for Medical Marijuana, an Orlando-based fundraising committee, John Morgan makes a powerful attempt to allow the Florida voters to decide on the issue of legalizing medical marijuana on their state’s ballot. Morgan has become passionate about reforming the marijuana laws in his home state ever since he saw the immense benefits the substance provided to his ailing father. Morgan’s father, who battled cancer and emphysema in his later years, said marijuana acted like a wonder drug, allowing him to eat, relax, and ease his suffering.

As to date, Florida law is very stringent on controlled substances, specifically, marijuana possession. If you have been arrested for possession of cannabis, the penalties for the crime can be unforgiving. Being caught with a minor amount (less than twenty grams) of marijuana is a 1st Degree Misdemeanor and can land you up to a year in jail. The same punishment can even be given if you attempt to merely give someone else a minor amount of marijuana for free. Being busted for a larger amount (more than twenty grams) is considered a 3rd Degree Felony, carrying a penalty of up to five years in prison. The laws in Florida do not recognize whether someone’s possession of marijuana is for medical or personal use. In Florida, marijuana use is illegal on all fronts.

An attorney that not only cares about her clients but she also fights for justice!!
Ms. Jessica Travis is a fighter. She will not stop until she gets the justice you deserve. The felony I was charged with had two counts against me. I was facing 5 years on each count. Ms. Travis saw that the charges against me were not as what they seemed, and she worked day and night on my case. As we went to trial my charges were dropped down to probation and community service. I thought my life was over until she accepted my case. I have never met anyone that cared so much for my rights. She promised me that she would do her best to get the best deal and she did more than that. I am now working full time and my wife and I are finally getting our life back. Thank you Jessica for everything. If anyone of you need an defense attorney, Do not elsewhere. She will treat your case as if you were her only client. She is the best!!!

FABULOUS LAWYER
I read the reviews on here prior to hiring Jessica as my attorney. The reviews are not wrong. She is an excellent attorney. She does her research and is very professional. She let me know what to expect and understood my concerns. I hired her for a case that was less than a week away and she blew it out of the park. Thank you Jessica, that takes a real professional to be prepared that quickly. Hopefully I don't have to use you again, but if I need an attorney, I will be right back to you! I will also recommend you to any of my friends or associates who need a good lawyer with your expertise.

I’m so glad I was able to seek out her help . . .
I was recently involved in an auto accident in which a bicyclist ran into the side of my car. Even though I was not at fault, the FHP officer gave me a ticket and wanted to put four points on my license. I have a very clean driving record and have been driving for 15 years. Needless to say, I was very upset. Jessica helped resolve the situation such that the ticket was dismissed and no points were put on my license. I'm so glad I was able to seek out her help and I highly recommend her services as a traffic attorney. Thank you Jessica.

With the 683,149 signatures required to bring the legislation to the Florida ballot, Morgan’s battle for the reformation of marijuana laws appears like an uphill fight. However, although Florida has traditionally been a conservative state, the demographics of the state voters are changing. With a high immigrant population and a more liberal view from Florida’s younger generation, Morgan’s required signatures may come easier than expected.
Although the laws on marijuana are harsh in Florida, medical marijuana laws are rapidly passing in legislation all over the country. Currently, eighteen states, ranging from the liberal state of
Colorado to the conservative state of Arizona, have passed medical marijuana laws. Just as Morgan is attempting to do with his petition drive, most of the medical marijuana laws passed in other states have been approved by voters, not the legislature.
With John Morgan’s latest attempt to legalize medical marijuana in his home state, Florida’s current tough legislation on marijuana use and possession could drastically change. However, until Morgan’s petition initiative is complete and the bills make it onto the 2014 ballot, the marijuana laws in the Sunshine State will continue to remain strict and harsh.
