Sheriff Miranda discusses the difficulties in serving notices to the appropriate person in authority at illegal cannabis shops. He explains how the enforcement process is adapting to various scenarios and legal defenses.
- The person behind the counter is often considered the right person to serve, but this is being challenged
- Enforcement is adapting to new scenarios, such as online premises and mobile sellers
- The Sheriff's Office is seeking support to adjust to legal nuances created by creative defenses

That would, in the majority of cases, be the right person.
1:47:03
However, I believe that you may have testimony later on from some of the attorneys that will present different variations of who they believe is in charge.
1:47:10
So, again, I think that we're adjusting to the nuances of of how they're being defended.
1:47:17
But again, if the people engage in selling illegal product and we're seizing it, the responses going back are something to be created.
1:47:25
We have to adjust as well as the person who's selling in front of location or using a vehicle or using a stand of some kind.
1:47:33
You have a number of online premise premises that are online that we also need to be able to have some response to at some point, but has not been addressed yet.
1:47:43
So I think this is evolving, and I think the law will need to evolve and and your support in terms of adjusting to those nuances that are being created, all that would be greatly appreciated.

We wanna get the 14%.
1:47:54
It's not a high number.
1:47:55
We wanna get it down as much as possible.
Anthony Miranda
1:47:57
Absolutely.
1:47:58
We love to be at a 100%.
Gale A. Brewer
1:48:00
Yes.
1:48:01
How many dismissals have been due to failure to meet the 5 day requirement related to the old parents, which was in the state state law.
Anthony Miranda
1:48:10
I don't know that number off hand.
Gale A. Brewer
1:48:12
Okay.
1:48:12
Can you get that to us?
Anthony Miranda
1:48:13
Yes.
1:48:13
Absolutely.
1:48:14
Okay.
Gale A. Brewer
1:48:15
Have you declared CREASE A NUMBER OF DISMISSALS AS THE OPERATION HAS DEVELOPED.
1:48:19
I THINK YOU HAVE.
1:48:20
BUT I WAS Just WONDERING IF WE WOULD AGREE WITH THAT NUMBERS.
1:48:23
Reporter: DOES YOU WORK?
1:48:25
How DOES THAT TRAINING WORK?
Anthony Miranda
1:48:26
Reporter: THE TRAINING WILL ALSO BE BASED ON NEW TOPICS So if if a particular location presented certain challenges, it's important that the rest of the teams know that the challenge that we face at particular locations.
