Woody Harrelson Prevails In Court Challenge
COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY
23RD JUDICIAL DISTRICT
LEE DISTRICT COURT
CASE NO. 96-M-00161
COMMONWEALTH OF KENTUCKY
VS
WOODY HARRELSON
Today, Judge Ralph E. McClanahan handed down the following
judgment: ... "After reviewing the statutes and memoranda of
the parties this Court finds that the definition of marijuana
contained in KRS 218A.010 (12) is constitutionally defective due
to it's overbroad application by including non-hallucinogenic
plant parts." ... "We believe the enactment of [this statute]
is an arbitrary exercise of power by the General Assembly over
the lives and property of free men." ...
