  1. California Supreme Court upholds pot dispensary bans

    SAN FRANCISCO &mdash; The California Supreme Court gave local governments the power Monday to zone medical marijuana dispensaries out of existence, a decision that upholds bans in about <a href="http://americansforsafeaccess.org/article.php%3Fid=3165">200 cities</a> but does little to solve Los Angeles' years-long struggle to regulate hundreds of storefront pot outlets.

  2. Another way on California's prisons

    Gov. Jerry Brown has made it clear how unhappy he is about having to produce a plan to reduce the inmate population of California's prisons by another 9,000. Under the 2011 realignment law, the state has already lowered the prisoner count by 43,000 by diverting many would-be new prisoners to county jails and many would-be parole violators to county supervision. Besides, the governor has argued, the whole point of the court-imposed population cap &mdash; 137.5% of capacity &mdash; is to resolve serious problems with inmate medical and mental health care, and hasn't that already been done with an enormous new commitment of resources and treatment?

  4. Brown's prison plan faces hard questions in Legislature

    Gov. Jerry Brown's "ugly" proposal to federal judges to partially ease prison crowding by leasing empty jail beds in the state drew dismay from advocates on both sides of the criminal justice debate and a forecast of "dubious prospects" from a legislative leader who objects to the cost.
