       Senator Clemens moved the following:
       
    1         Senate Amendment (with title amendment)
    2  
    3         Delete everything after the enacting clause
    4  and insert:
    5         Section 1. This act may be cited as the “Cathy Jordan
    6  Medical Cannabis Act.”
    7         Section 2. Section 381.986, Florida Statutes, is repealed.
    8         Section 3. Part XVII of chapter 468, Florida Statutes,
    9  consisting of sections 468.901-468.918, is created to read:
   10         468.901Purpose.—The purpose of part IV of chapter 499 and
   11  this part is to:
   12         (1) Make a distinction between the medical use and
   13  nonmedical use of cannabis and to protect qualifying patients,
   14  their prescribing physicians, their caregivers, and persons who
   15  lawfully engage in activities associated with the operation of a
   16  dispensary or a medical cannabis farm from arrest, criminal
   17  prosecution, property forfeiture, and other penalties if such
   18  patients, physicians, caregivers, and persons engage in the
   19  medical use of cannabis. Compassionate medical use of cannabis
   20  will also reduce state law enforcement costs, including, but not
   21  limited to, state prison costs, local jail costs, felony
   22  prosecution costs, court and probation costs, costs associated
   23  with felony and misdemeanor arrests, and alternative treatment
   24  costs by reducing the incidence of arrest and prosecution of
   25  nonviolent cannabis users and traffickers in the state.
   26         (2) Provide consumer protection regarding the medical use
   27  of cannabis by regulating the cultivation, manufacturing,
   28  wholesale distribution, prescribing, and retailing of cannabis,
   29  cannabis-based products, cannabis plants, and drug paraphernalia
   30  in the state in order to:
   31         (a) Safeguard the public health, safety, and welfare.
   32         (b) Protect the public from being misled by unscrupulous
   33  and unauthorized persons or criminal activity.
   34         (c) Ensure the highest degree of conduct on the part of
   35  owners, directors, officers, members, employees, and agents of
   36  medical cannabis farms and dispensaries.
   37         (d) Ensure the availability of controlled distribution and
   38  use of high-quality cannabis, cannabis-based products, cannabis
   39  plants, and drug paraphernalia in this state for the benefit of
   40  a qualifying patient who is prescribed cannabis for medical use.
   41         468.902 Legislative findings and intent.—
   42         (1) The Legislature finds that:
   43         (a) Modern medical research has discovered beneficial uses
   44  for cannabis in treating or alleviating pain, nausea, and other
   45  symptoms associated with certain qualifying medical conditions,
   46  as indicated by the National Academy of Sciences’ Institute of
   47  Medicine (IOM) in its report dated March 1999, cited by the
   48  United States Department of Health and Human Services, which
   49  found that “there is substantial consensus among experts in the
   50  relevant disciplines on the scientific evidence about potential
   51  medical uses of marijuana.”
   52         (b) The prohibition against the use of cannabis has been in
   53  effect for many years and is rooted in outdated scientific
   54  evidence that does not make a reasonable distinction between its
   55  recreational use and beneficial medicinal use.
   56         (c) Although federal law currently prohibits any use of
   57  marijuana and cannabis, the laws of Alaska, Arizona, California,
   58  Colorado, Connecticut, Delaware, District of Columbia, Hawaii,
   59  Illinois, Maine, Massachusetts, Michigan, Montana, Nevada, New
   60  Hampshire, New Jersey, New Mexico, Oregon, Rhode Island,
   61  Vermont, and Washington allow the medical use of cannabis and
   62  the cultivation of marijuana as of January 2014. This state
   63  joins in this effort for the health, safety, and welfare of its
   64  residents through enacting the Cathy Jordan Medical Cannabis Act
   65  and creating license and permit regulations in this part.
   66         (d) The medical use of cannabis offers a substantial
   67  benefit to the health, safety, and welfare of the residents of
   68  this state, and it is the intent of the Legislature that this
   69  part and part III of chapter 499 be liberally construed to make
   70  these benefits available to the residents of this state.
   71         (e) The states are not required to enforce federal law or
   72  prosecute people for engaging in activities prohibited by
   73  federal law. Therefore, compliance with this part and part III
   74  of chapter 499 does not place this state in violation of federal
   75  law.
   76         (2) The Tenth Amendment of the United States Constitution
   77  provides that powers not delegated to the Federal Government by
   78  the federal constitution, nor prohibited to the states, are
   79  reserved to the states or the people. Therefore, the Legislature
   80  may enact this part pursuant to its police power to enact
   81  legislation for the protection of the health of its residents.
   82         (3) The provisions of this part and part III of chapter 499
   83  are cumulative and do not repeal or affect any power, duty, or
   84  authority of the Department of Business and Professional
   85  Regulation, the Department of Health, and the Department of
   86  Revenue under any other law of this state, except with respect
   87  to the regulation of cannabis as provided in this part and part
   88  III of chapter 499. If the provisions of this part or part III
   89  of chapter 499 conflict with any other such law, the provisions
   90  of this part and part III of chapter 499 control.

  308  product derived from the cannabis plant.

  310         (1) Notwithstanding any other provision of law and in

  367  drug interactions.
  368         (9) A dispensary shall prohibit a qualifying patient from
  369  administering or using, and prohibit a patient’s caregiver who
  370  assists a qualifying patient from administering or using, any
  371  form of cannabis while on the property of the dispensary. A

  373  penalties prescribed by department rule, this part, and part III

  475         468.910Applications for licenses and permits.—
  476         (1)An application for a license or permit required under
  477  this part must be filed in writing with the department. An
  478  application must include, at a minimum, the full name, date of

  491  processing. If the application does not require a set of
  492  fingerprints, the department shall submit the name and other

  497  corporation, by each officer and director of the corporation.
  498  The officers and directors applying on behalf of a corporation
  499  shall provide all of the required identifying data and

  501  the application.
  502         (2)The department may require an applicant to furnish
  503  other information or data not required by this section if the
  504  information or data are deemed necessary by the department.
  505         468.911Issuance of licenses and permits; prohibitions.—
  506         (1)A license or permit issued by the department in
  507  accordance with this part must set forth, at a minimum, the full
  508  name, date of birth, and physical description of the licensee or
  509  permittee and have permanently affixed an accurate and current
  510  photograph of the licensee or permittee. A license or permit

  525         1. A drug-related felony; or
  526         2. A nondrug-related felony for which the person has not
  527  been pardoned or has not had his or her civil rights restored;
  528  or
  529         (c)A person who has been adjudicated mentally incompetent
  530  or adjudicated mentally defective and has not had his or her
  531  civil rights restored. As used in this paragraph, the phrase:
  532         1. “Adjudicated mentally defective” has the same meaning as
  533  in s. 790.065.
  534         2. “Adjudicated mentally incompetent” means a determination
  535  by a court that a person who, because of mental illness,
  536  intellectual disability, senility, excessive use of drugs or
  537  alcohol, or other mental incapacity, is incapable of managing
  538  his or her property or caring for himself or herself or both.
  539         (4)A person may not knowingly withhold information or
  540  present to the department a false, fictitious, or misrepresented
  541  application, identification, document, information, statement,
  542  or data intended or likely to deceive the department for
  543  obtaining a license or permit.
  544         468.912License and permit to be displayed.—
  545         (1) A medical cannabis farm that has a valid department
  546  issued permit may use the term “medical cannabis farm” or
  547  “permitted medical cannabis farm,” in connection with the
  548  permittee’s name or place of business, to denote permitting
  549  under this part.
  550         (2) A licensed dispensary may use the term “dispensary,”
  551  “licensed dispensary,” or “licensed medical cannabis
  552  dispensary,” in connection with the licensee’s name or place of
  553  business, to denote licensure under this part.
  554         (3) A person who is issued a license or permit under this
  555  part shall keep such license or permit conspicuously displayed
  556  in his or her office, place of business, or place of employment
  557  and shall show such license or permit as required by any member
  558  or authorized representative of the department.
  559         (4) A license or permit that is issued by the department is
  560  valid beginning on October 1 of the year for which it is issued
  561  and expires on September 30 of the following year.
  562         (5)A medical cannabis farm that has a department-issued
  563  permit or a licensed dispensary must renew its permit or license
  564  before its expiration date. If a renewal application and fee are
  565  not filed by the expiration date, the license or permit may be
  566  reinstated only if the licensee or permittee pays, within 30
  567  days after the date of expiration, a delinquent fee that may not
  568  exceed $750 for a medical cannabis farm and $500 for a
  569  dispensary, plus the required renewal and application fees. If a
  570  licensee or permittee fails to comply with the renewal
  571  requirements of this part, the department may seize all
  572  cannabis, cannabis-based products, cannabis plants, and drug
  573  paraphernalia and dispose of them in any manner deemed
  574  appropriate by the department by November 1 of the year the
  575  license or permit expires. Any funds collected from the disposal
  576  shall be placed in the Professional Regulation Trust Fund.
  577         (6)The fee structure for reactivation of an inactive
  578  license or permit, except when renewed within 30 days after the
  579  date of expiration, is the same as for an initial permit or
  580  license, including the application fee.
  581         468.913Reports of theft, illegal use, or illegal
  582  possession.—
  583         (1)A licensee or permittee who incurs a loss, theft, or
  584  unexplained shortage of cannabis, cannabis-based products,
  585  cannabis plants, or drug paraphernalia, or who has knowledge of
  586  a loss, theft, or unexplained shortage of cannabis, cannabis
  587  based products, cannabis plants, or drug paraphernalia, shall,
  588  within 12 hours after the discovery, report such loss, theft, or
  589  unexplained shortage to the county sheriff or police chief of
  590  the jurisdiction in which the loss, theft, or unexplained
  591  shortage occurred. This loss, theft, or unexplained shortage
  592  shall also be reported to the department by the close of the
  593  next business day following the discovery.
  594         (2) A law enforcement agency that investigates the causes
  595  and circumstances of a loss, theft, or unexplained shortage of
  596  cannabis, cannabis-based products, cannabis plants, or drug
  597  paraphernalia shall forward a copy of its final written report
  598  to the department. The department shall retain these reports in
  599  the files of the affected licensee or permittee.
  600         (3)Any sheriff or law enforcement officer in this state
  601  shall give immediate notice to the department of the theft,
  602  illegal use, or illegal possession of cannabis, cannabis-based
  603  products, cannabis plants, or drug paraphernalia and forward a
  604  copy of his or her final written police report to the
  605  department.
  606         468.914 Administrative relief; civil relief; penalties;
  607  allocation and disposition of moneys collected.—
  608         (1) If the department has probable cause to believe that a
  609  person not licensed or permitted by the department has engaged
  610  in any activities governed by this part or a department rule
  611  adopted pursuant to this part, the department may:
  612         (a) Issue and deliver to such person a notice to cease and
  613  desist from such violation. The issuance of a notice to cease
  614  and desist does not constitute agency action for which a hearing
  615  under ss. 120.569 and 120.57 may be sought. For the purpose of
  616  enforcing a notice to cease and desist, the department may file
  617  a proceeding seeking issuance of an injunction or a writ of
  618  mandamus against a person who violates such notice. If the
  619  department is required to seek enforcement of the notice to
  620  cease and desist for penalty pursuant to s. 120.569, it is
  621  entitled to collect its attorney fees and costs.
  622         (b) In addition to the remedy under paragraph (a), impose
  623  by citation an administrative fine not to exceed $5,000 for each
  624  violation per day. Each day that a violation continues
  625  constitutes a separate violation, and each separate violation is
  626  subject to a separate fine. The department shall issue the
  627  citation to the person, and the citation must contain the
  628  person’s name and any other information the department
  629  determines to be necessary to identify the person, a brief
  630  factual statement, the sections of the law allegedly violated,
  631  and the fine imposed. If the person does not dispute the matter
  632  in the citation or pay the fine within 30 days after the
  633  citation is served, the citation becomes a final order of the
  634  department. The department is entitled to recover the costs of
  635  investigation and prosecution in addition to the fine levied
  636  pursuant to the citation.
  637         (c) In addition to the administrative remedies under
  638  paragraphs (a) and (b), seek injunctive relief in the Circuit
  639  Court of Leon County and apply for temporary orders and
  640  permanent orders as the department deems necessary to restrain
  641  such person from engaging in any activity under this part until
  642  such person complies. The court may also award to the prevailing
  643  party court costs and reasonable attorney fees and, if the
  644  department prevails, may also award reasonable costs for
  645  investigation and prosecution.
  646         (2) The department may revoke or suspend in accordance with
  647  this subsection all of the licenses or permits held by a person.
  648  An order of suspension must specify the duration of the
  649  suspension, which may not exceed 1 year from the date of the
  650  order. An order of revocation may be entered for a period not to
  651  exceed 5 years. The order affects the revocation of all licenses
  652  and permits held by the person. During such period, a license or
  653  permit may not be issued to the person. If, during the period
  654  between the beginning of a proceeding to revoke or suspend a
  655  license or permit and the entry of an order of suspension or
  656  revocation by the department, a new license or permit is issued
  657  to the person, any order of suspension or revocation applies
  658  with respect to the new license or permit. A person whose permit
  659  or license has been suspended or revoked may not be issued a new
  660  permit or license under any other name or company name until the
  661  expiration of the suspension or revocation. In addition to the
  662  administrative remedies and civil remedies under paragraphs
  663  (1)(b) and (c) and the criminal penalties in subsection (3), the
  664  department may revoke or suspend a license or permit if a person
  665  does any of the following:
  666         (a) Violates this part or a department rule adopted
  667  pursuant to this part.
  668         (b) Fails to pay an administrative fine within 30 days
  669  after a citation becomes a final order.
  670         (c) Knowingly makes or files a report that is false,
  671  intentionally or negligently fails to file a report or record
  672  required by state law, or willfully impedes or obstructs such
  673  filing or induces another person to do so.
  674         (d) Pays or receives, directly or indirectly, a commission,
  675  bonus, kickback, or rebate to or from, or who engages in any
  676  split-fee arrangement in any form with, a physician,
  677  organization, agency, or person for patients referred to a
  678  provider of health care goods and services, including, but not
  679  limited to, a hospital, nursing home, clinical laboratory,
  680  ambulatory surgical center, or pharmacy.

  683         1. Presents to the department a false, fictitious, or
  684  misrepresented application, registration, identification,
  685  document, information, statement, or data intended or likely to
  686  deceive the department for the purpose of obtaining or renewing
  687  a license or permit commits a misdemeanor of the first degree,
  688  punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.

  691  of inventories commits a misdemeanor of the first degree,
  692  punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.
  693         (b) A licensee who knowingly fails to maintain written
  694  accounts of inventories or records of sales or transfers commits
  695  a misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s.
  696  775.082 or s. 775.083.
  697         (c) A permittee who knowingly fails to maintain written
  698  inventories and records commits a misdemeanor of the first
  699  degree, punishable as provided in s. 775.082 or s. 775.083.
  700         (d) A licensee or permittee who fails to report the loss,
  701  theft, or unexplained shortage of cannabis, cannabis-based
  702  products, cannabis plants, or drug paraphernalia commits a
  703  misdemeanor of the first degree, punishable as provided in s.
  704  775.082 or s. 775.083.
  705         (4) The provisions of this section are cumulative and do
  706  not affect any other lawful remedy available to the state,
  707  including administrative fines and injunctive relief.
  708         (5) All fines, monetary penalties, and costs received by
  709  the department in connection with this part shall be deposited
  710  into the Professional Regulation Trust Fund.

  712  department.—All hearings shall be conducted in accordance with
  713  chapter 120. All reviews of orders of the department shall be in

  716  municipality in this state may create or impose an ordinance or
  717  rule pertaining to the medical use of cannabis which is not

  719  III of chapter 499, or applicable department rules.
  720         468.917Collection of moneys.—All moneys collected under
  721  this part and deposited into the Professional Regulation Trust

  727         (1) By October 1, 2016, the department shall adopt rules to

  914  the registration form is deemed a valid registry identification
  915  card.
  916         (11) If the department determines that a cardholder
  917  willfully violates this part, the department may revoke the

  921         (1) A person who seeks designation as a qualifying patient
  922  or the patient’s caregiver must register with the department.
  923         (2) A patient’s caregiver may be connected to up to three
  924  qualifying patients through the department’s registration
  925  process as indicated on the caregiver’s valid registry
  926  identification card.
  927         (3) A qualifying patient or the patient’s caregiver shall
  928  deliver or distribute cannabis in a labeled container or sealed
  929  package in a manner and method established by rule.
  930         (a) The maximum amount of cannabis which a qualifying
  931  patient may possess at any given time is 250 grams of usable
  932  cannabis, eight mature cannabis plants, and eight immature
  933  cannabis plants.
  934         (b) The maximum amount of cannabis which a patient’s
  935  caregiver may possess at any given time is:
  936         1. The number of grams of usable cannabis determined by
  937  multiplying by 250 the number of qualifying patients to whom the
  938  caregiver is connected through the department’s registration
  939  process as indicated on the caregiver’s valid registry
  940  identification card.
  941         2. The number of mature cannabis plants determined by
  942  multiplying by 8 the number of qualifying patients to whom the
  943  caregiver is connected through the department’s registration
  944  process as indicated on the caregiver’s valid registry
  945  identification card.
  946         3. The number of immature cannabis plants determined by
  947  multiplying by 8 the number of qualifying patients to whom the
  948  caregiver is connected through the department’s registration
  949  process as indicated on the caregiver’s valid registry
  950  identification card.
  951         (4) If a cardholder cultivates his or her own cannabis for
  952  medical use, the cardholder must do so in a room, greenhouse,
  953  garden, or other enclosed area that is kept locked and out of
  954  the public view. This subsection does not apply when the plants
  955  are being delivered or distributed:
  956         (a) Because the cardholder is changing permanent residence
  957  or temporary residence as defined in s. 775.21; or

  960  patient.
  961         (5) Cannabis may be administered at a medical treatment
  962  facility if allowed by the facility and if a qualifying patient
  963  is receiving medical care for a qualifying medical condition or
  964  treatment. Cannabis may not be administered by or to a
  965  qualifying patient at a dispensary or in a public place.
  966         (6) This part does not allow a person to undertake a task
  967  under the influence of cannabis when doing so constitutes
  968  professional negligence or professional malpractice.
  969         (7) The medical use of cannabis as authorized under this
  970  part and under department rule does not create a defense to an
  971  offense proscribed by law which is not otherwise excepted in
  972  this chapter or in chapter 468. Evidence of a person’s voluntary
  973  intoxication from the use of cannabis is not admissible in a
  974  judicial proceeding to show that the person lacked the specific
  975  intent to commit an offense or to show that the person was
  976  insane at the time of the offense, except when the consumption
  977  was pursuant to a lawful prescription issued to the person by a
  978  physician.
  979         (8) Notwithstanding any other provision of law, a person or
  980  entity may provide information about the existence or operations
  981  of a medical cannabis farm or dispensary to another person
  982  pursuant to this part.
  983         (9) A person who is stopped by a law enforcement officer
  984  upon reasonable suspicion or probable cause that he or she is in
  985  possession of cannabis may not be further detained or arrested
  986  on this sole basis if the person is in compliance with this part
  987  and department rule.
  988         499.954 Physicians; prescriptions for the medical use of
  989  cannabis.—
  990         (1) A physician may prescribe the medical use of cannabis
  991  to a qualifying patient if the physician:
  992         (a) Is in a bona fide physician-patient relationship with
  993  the qualifying patient; and
  994         (b) Determines that the prescription is needed based on the
  995  qualifying patient’s medical history and current medical
  996  condition and a review of other approved medications and
  997  treatments that may provide the qualifying patient with relief
  998  from a qualifying medical condition or its symptoms or the side
  999  effects of a qualifying medical treatment.
 1000         (2) If a physician prescribes cannabis for medical use to a
 1001  qualifying patient, the physician shall complete a written

 1008  of cannabis is necessary.
 1009         (3) A physician is not subject to arrest, prosecution, or
 1010  penalty, including, but not limited to, civil penalty or
 1011  disciplinary action by the department or by any other business
 1012  licensing board, occupational licensing board, or professional
 1013  licensing board, or subject to denial of any right or privilege,
 1014  solely for advising a patient about the medical use of cannabis,
 1015  prescribing the medical use of cannabis in accordance with this
 1016  part and department rule, providing a written prescription in
 1017  accordance with this section, or stating that, in the
 1018  physician’s professional opinion, the potential benefits of the
 1019  medical use of cannabis likely outweigh the health risks for a
 1020  patient.
 1021         (4) A physician who recommends, advises, or prescribes
 1022  cannabis for medical use to a qualifying patient may not have a
 1023  professional office located at a medical cannabis farm or
 1024  dispensary or receive financial compensation for the
 1025  recommendation, advice, or prescription from a medical cannabis
 1026  farm or dispensary or an owner, director, officer, member,
 1027  incorporator, agent, or employee of such farm or dispensary.
 1028         499.955Arrest and prosecution.—
 1029         (1)(a) A qualifying patient who has in his or her
 1030  possession a valid registry identification card is not subject
 1031  to arrest, prosecution, or penalty, including, but not limited
 1032  to, civil penalty or disciplinary action by a business licensing
 1033  board, occupational licensing board, or professional licensing
 1034  board, and may not be denied any right or privilege, for the
 1035  medical use of cannabis if the qualifying patient possesses an
 1036  amount of cannabis which does not exceed 250 grams of usable
 1037  cannabis, eight mature cannabis plants, and eight immature
 1038  cannabis plants.
 1039         (b) A patient’s caregiver who has in his or her possession
 1040  a valid registry identification card is not subject to arrest,
 1041  prosecution, or penalty, including, but not limited to, civil
 1042  penalty or disciplinary action by a business licensing board,
 1043  occupational licensing board, or professional licensing board,
 1044  and may not be denied any right or privilege, for assisting a
 1045  qualifying patient to whom he or she is connected through the
 1046  department’s registration process with the delivery or
 1047  distribution of cannabis if the patient’s caregiver possesses an
 1048  amount of cannabis which does not exceed 250 grams of usable
 1049  cannabis, eight mature cannabis plants, or eight immature
 1050  cannabis plants for each qualifying patient to whom he or she is
 1051  connected through the department’s registration process as
 1052  indicated on the caregiver’s valid registry identification card.
 1053         (c) A nurse practitioner, registered nurse, or pharmacist
 1054  is not subject to arrest, prosecution, or penalty, including,
 1055  but not limited to, civil penalty or disciplinary action by a
 1056  business licensing board, occupational licensing board, or
 1057  professional licensing board, and may not be denied any right or
 1058  privilege, solely for discussing with a patient the benefits or
 1059  health risks of cannabis or its interaction with other
 1060  substances.
 1061         (d) A person is not subject to arrest or prosecution for
 1062  constructive possession, conspiracy, aiding and abetting, being
 1063  an accessory, or any other offense for being in the presence or
 1064  vicinity of the medical use of cannabis by a qualifying patient
 1065  or for assisting in, as the patient’s caregiver, the medical use
 1066  of cannabis by a qualifying patient as allowed under this part.
 1067         (2) A school, employer, or property owner may not refuse to
 1068  enroll, employ, or lease to or otherwise penalize a person
 1069  solely for his or her status as a cardholder.
 1070         (3) A presumption is created that a qualifying patient or
 1071  the patient’s caregiver is engaged in the medical use of
 1072  cannabis if the qualifying patient or the patient’s caregiver is
 1073  in possession of a valid registry identification card and if the
 1074  number of cannabis plants or the amount of cannabis does not
 1075  exceed the amount allowed under this section.
 1076         (4) A presumption of the medical use or possession of
 1077  cannabis under this section may be rebutted by evidence that the
 1078  conduct related to cannabis was not intended to treat, or assist
 1079  with the treatment of, a qualifying medical condition or the
 1080  symptoms associated with that condition or to alleviate the side
 1081  effects of a qualifying medical treatment.
 1082         (5) The patient’s caregiver may be reimbursed for actual
 1083  costs associated with assisting a qualifying patient in his or
 1084  her medical use of cannabis. This reimbursement does not
 1085  constitute the sale of a controlled substance under s. 893.13.
 1086         (6) For the purposes of medical care, a qualifying
 1087  patient’s medical use of cannabis is equivalent to the use of
 1088  other medication used at the direction of a physician. Such use
 1089  does not constitute the use of an illicit drug under s. 893.03.
 1090         (7) A person, cardholder, medical cannabis farm, or
 1091  dispensary that cultivates, manufactures, possesses,
 1092  administers, dispenses, distributes, or uses cannabis or
 1093  manufactures, possesses, distributes, or uses drug paraphernalia
 1094  in a manner not authorized by this part, part XVII of chapter
 1095  468, or department rule is subject to criminal prosecution and
 1096  sanctions under chapter 893.
 1097         (8) A person who makes a fraudulent representation to a law
 1098  enforcement officer of any fact or circumstance relating to the
 1099  person’s cultivation, manufacture, possession, administration,
 1100  dispensing, distribution, or authorized use of cannabis, or
 1101  possession or use of drug paraphernalia, to avoid arrest or
 1102  prosecution is subject to a criminal fine not to exceed $1,000.
 1103  The imposition of the fine is in addition to penalties that may
 1104  otherwise apply for the making of a false statement or for the
 1105  cultivation, manufacture, possession, administration,
 1106  dispensing, distribution, or unauthorized use of cannabis or
 1107  possession or use of drug paraphernalia.
 1108         499.956Defenses.—
 1109         (1) The following circumstances may be raised as an
 1110  affirmative defense to a criminal charge of possession or

 1121  to distribute occurs in a medical cannabis farm or dispensary.
 1122         (2) Before, or at the time of, a cardholder’s court
 1123  appearance for a criminal charge of possession or use of drug
 1124  paraphernalia, or for a criminal charge of possession, use, or
 1125  administration of a legal amount of cannabis for medical use,
 1126  the clerk of the court may dismiss the charge and assess a
 1127  dismissal fee of $25 if the cardholder:
 1128         (a) Upon demand by a law enforcement officer, was unable to
 1129  present to the law enforcement officer a registry identification
 1130  card to confirm that the cardholder may possess or use drug
 1131  paraphernalia or possess, use, or administer legal amounts of
 1132  cannabis for medical use; and
 1133         (b) Before, or at the time of, the cardholder’s court

 1143  the physician’s professional opinion, after having completed a
 1144  full assessment of the patient’s medical history and current
 1145  medical condition made in the course of a bona fide physician
 1146  patient relationship, the potential benefits of using cannabis
 1147  would likely outweigh the health risks for the qualifying
 1148  patient; and
 1149         (b) The qualifying patient and the patient’s caregiver, if
 1150  any, were collectively in possession of a quantity of cannabis
 1151  which was not more than that allowed under this part to ensure
 1152  the uninterrupted availability of cannabis for the purpose of
 1153  treating a qualifying medical condition and the symptoms
 1154  associated with that condition or alleviating the side effects
 1155  of a qualifying medical treatment.
 1156         (4) A person may assert the purpose for the medical use of
 1157  cannabis in a motion to dismiss, and the charges shall be
 1158  dismissed following an evidentiary hearing if the person
 1159  presents the evidence specified in subsection (3).
 1160         (5) The Florida Contraband Forfeiture Act, contained in ss.
 1161  932.701-932.706, does not apply to any interest in or right to
 1162  property that is possessed, owned, or used in connection with
