Washington Marijuana Lawsuits in State or Federal Court
WA cannabis lawsuits can be filed in state or federal court. Selecting a jurisdiction is generally based on: 1) whether all parties inhabit Washington, and 2) the severity of marijuana-related injuries.
Washington State Cannabis Claims
When all parties reside in Washington, cannabis lawsuits of any magnitude can be filed in the State’s county courts (WA Courts Website). The Revised Code of Washington (RCW) sets forth the State’s procedural law for mental health claims attributed to dispensary marijuana.
The State of Washington follows a pure comparative negligence rule. Accordingly, a Washington cannabis lawyer can recover damages for wrongful conduct by growers and dispensaries regardless of what portion of fault may be assigned to the plaintiff. However, the dispensary victim’s financial award may be reduced by their own degree of fault (if any).
9th Circuit Cannabis Claims in Washington
Washington is part of the Ninth Circuit of the federal court system, and individual cannabis lawsuits can be filed at its local U.S. District Court. Marijuana dispensary appeals are heard by the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Provided the psychological harm is severe, cannabis claims can be filed in this court against growers and dispensaries nationwide.
However, federal marijuana lawsuits filed in Washington may be transferred to a centralized jurisdiction pursuant to a mental health Multi-District Litigation (MDL) Transfer Order. (Follow this link for our additional information on 9th Circuit cannabis compensation.)
