SECHELT, B.C. -- Steve and Michele Kubby were in court today to ask for the return of their growing equipment and medicine, but the ended up with more than they had bargained for. At the request of Crown Counsel Don Fairweather, all charges against the Kubbys were dropped today in Sechelt Provincial Court. Judge Dan Moon also ordered the return of all growing equipment seized last April when the RCMP raided the Kubby home.

The Kubbys will be returning to Judge Moon's court tomorrow at 1:30 so that further orders for the return of medical marijuana held by the RCMP can be issued.

"My husband has lost 30 pounds since this raid and is scheduled for high level radiation therapy in two weeks. This additional medicine we will be receiving will be coming at a very critical time," said Michele Kubby.

In a related development, Brian Carlisle who is also a patient and a friend of the Kubbys had his grow equipment returned by the Hope RCMP today as well. The Kubbys credit Mr. Carlisle for assisting them in obtaining their exemption and return of equipment.
