CA Primary Caretaker Legal Advice

Hello all, got a legal question concerning California drug enforcement policy, particularly in the San Bernardino area. Here's my situation:

My friend, lets call him 'Bob', is a legal marijuana patient and grower under prop 215. Bob has also been my marijuana provider for about three years now. Several weeks ago I became a legal patient as well, and Bob approached me about the possibility of making him my primary caretaker, so that he could add to his maximum capacity of legal plants.

This idea does make sense to me. After all, Bob has been my primary marijuana provider and wil in all probability continue to be for the next year or so.

However...

I suspect that Bob does not deal exclusively with legal patients (I suspect this because I only got my card a few weeks ago, and he's been selling me weed for three years). In the unfortunate event that Bob ever gets caught, what risk would I assume as one of his legitimate patients? Would it be selfish, even toolish of me to refuse, then continue buying his weed?

Thanks for looking,
Jazus

I'm in CO, not CA, so I don't know the specifics, but it sounds like you wouldn't be in trouble. Say some upright dispensary that you give your rights to does the same thing. They were reputable, like let's say the Wal-Mart of weed, and then they start dealing illegally. You being at a separate location, minding your own business, have done nothing wrong; all you did was give your 'plants' to a legal dispensary.

If you are worried about anything then ask for the number and info on his medicinal card and verify it yourself.

As long as two people exchange marijuana with their legitimate medicinal cards they are fine but I honestly suggest finding a nice dispensary to buy from. It is probably safer in many aspects (regardless of already buying from "Bob" for years without problems).
