This workshop will provide an update on Florida and federal medical marijuana law and legislation and prepare the mediator to recognize societal, generational and cultural diversity of opposing perceptions relating to the medicinal treatment with cannabinoids found in marijuana, as its use transitions from a taboo to a personal wellness option. Attendees will discover why Florida will soon see a rise in medical marijuana-related cases being ordered to participate in mediation. This presentation will also caution mediators as to what can and cannot be said in light of permissible marijuana use under restrictive state law and absolute illegality under federal law.
