Is it legal?

Is it legal to have a scale in your possession if you are a medical marijuana cardholder? If not I'm curious as to why?

It's legal to have a scale with or without a card. It's not against the law to weigh stuff.

No scale, bags or ledgers. They are not ilegal, but used to incriminate.

I would get a scale big enough for humans but accurate enough for pot, so it would be tougher for them to use it against you since its really for weighing people

TELL THE COP YOUR A PATIENT MJ USER AND YOU SMOKE EXACTLY 1Gram at a time and need to know HOW MUCH YOUR ROLLing in that joint

Having a scale and weed at the same time gives the police probable cause that you are illegally selling. Having a scale and a med card, but no weed means you might weigh letters for postage.

If you are a card holder you're fine.

If not :
It would be a "reasonable suspicion".

1. But they would need a "probable cause" to search your person to find it.
2. NEVER allow your self to tricked into being searched.
3. Know your rights and politely exercise them.
4. Refuse to be searched without probable cause.
5. Don't reek of bud and you should be fine.
6. Wash your hands after smoking.

It is not illegal to have a scale if you are a medical marijuana user. Though if you get pulled over, having a scale on you may give them a reason to hassle you.

Golden rule of thumb:
Weed + Scale = Fine
Weed + Baggies = Fine
Weed + Scale + Baggies = You are in for some serious B.S. if caught--even if you are in the right.
