County counsel urges reduced penalties for marijuana offenders
Los Angeles County counsel John Maharg urges limiting possession for first offenders to a misdemeanor and supports 31 court reforms recommended by a committee of Superior Court judges. He argues small time marijuana cases clog courts and should be handled in municipal courts, while keeping narcotics sellers for the superior courts. The proposal also covers off track betting, grand juries, and civil trial reforms amid opposition from Sheriff Pitchess.
