High guys, I have instatlled a new drupal content management system to help organise legal documents, etc. Over time we hope to build up a comprehensive legal database of court documents relating to cannabis cases. These will be avaliable to browse, and hopefully act as an important resource to anyone facing prosecution.

We also plan to outline a number of legal strategies that can be used to defend cannabis charges and challenge the legitemacy of the Misuse of Drugs Act.

New Zealand has the second highest prison population per capita in the world. At present 10% of New Zealand's prison population is made up of inmates charged soley with cannabis offences. This is despite the fact that cannabis is safer than nicotine and alcohol and has numerous proven medical benefits. Every year tens of thousands of New Zealanders suffer the humiliation of a cannabis conviction.

I hope that the information in this site can help people like you and me from becoming part of these inhumane statistics.
