Virginia man spared by appeals court in marijuana case

The 4th U. S. Circuit Court of Appeals, in a 4-3 ruling, set aside a 40-year state sentence and a $20,000 fine for Roger Trenton Davis of Rural Retreat, convicted in Wythe County in 1974 for possession and intent to distribute nine ounces of marijuana. The decision, handed down in Richmond and released Saturday in Roanoke, overruled a prior panel ruling and drew dissent over potential precedent. Davis, living on bond, could not be reached for comment.
