Can felons live with Caregivers?

Just got my caregivers card & I'm wondering before I start my grow if any1 out there knows if a felon( my brother) can live with a caregiver( myself ) He does not have a patient or growers card & we live in rhode island. Any info on this would b greatly appreciated thanks...

fellons can live with anyone..they are poeple to

I believe the same but according to my lawyer he says no but admits the marijuana law here is new so he's not 2 familiar with it

check your local laws i guess. im sure yul find something

I checked rhode island medical marijuana laws & I can't find anything on it. Criminal law would say a felon or anybody in general can't b around or caught with marijuana but Im growing legal so I would think it would make the marijuana in my house legal to so what law would my brother b breaking? Being around legally grown green?

depends mostly on his conditions of release. he knows if he can be around it

I don't see why not... You dont have to have a clean record to obtain a medical marijuana licence. Actually where I live there was an article in he paper saying how the majority of dispensary owners are actually convicted felons.

@ dicky...no conditions of release, no probation anymore, jus the felony on his record

Call you local Sheriff or Chief of police. You may not get them directly, but maybe someone there can help. Call from a public phone if your worried about trouble. They will probably ask if you think he will steal or otherwise be a problem, and if you think so then its probably not a good idea.

id say as long as it wasnt drugs he was locked up for. i myself wouldnt worry

IMHO, your the caregiver, so the grow is legally (cough..cough) yours in your states eyes. If you have your grow locked and secured not allowing him access to the room or any keys or your product, that should help of the concern of, "he could access your grow" comes up.
I would ask the people who are running the medical caregiver system for exact advice. They would know the true answer, not the police or lawyers as these laws are too new for everyone to understand yet.
DISCLAIMER: I am not in your state, just tossing in my 2 cents worth for what it is worth.

In Michigan I don't think you can be a caregiver if you have a felony but I think that's where the felony language ends. Look on Normls site they should have some info or maybe contact Norml with your question.

your brother should get his card too, i would think that would be the safest wat to go
