Changing Florida Marijuana Laws and Illegal Search and Seizure

Florida marijuana search and seizure laws are always changing based on updates to the law and new court rulings. Recently 2 cases were published which illustrate the changing nature of search and seizure law in Florida. One Case is Rosales v State 3D23-1857 out of the 3rd DCA (July 31st, Miami), and the other is Baxter v State 5D2023-0118 from the 5th DCA (Duval County, august 2nd). It’s important to understand both if you want to get a picture of what is occurring in Florida Courts right now with respect to marijuana law and what it could mean to someone charged with a crime that was discovered based on the smell of marijuana.
