YPSILANTI TWP, Mich. (FOX 2) - A 79-year-old grandma in Ypsilanti Township is fighting her city over the legal amount of marijuana she can grow in her home.
Judith Pontius has 55 medical marijuana plants growing inside her home but the city says she can t that many plants and ordered her to stop. She fought the city and got lower-level courts to agree with her. But the state supreme court? That s where she lost her fight.
Well, maybe not quite. Pontius still has the pot in her house. Now she has the support of protesters outside the Washtenaw County Courthouse as she faces 93 days in jail.
