23 states and the District of Columbia have legalized marijuana in some form and a few more have decriminalized it. Four of these states and DC have legalized marijuana for recreational use as well as medical use. However, marijuana remains illegal under federal law and employers, regardless of whether or not marijuana is legal, likely will not want their employees using it at work. Please join this class for an overview of current marijuana laws, trends in the medical industry, and insight into how changing times will likely impact our current, drug-free workplaces. 

Speaker Bio:  Christine Dickover attended Indiana University Indianapolis and received her undergraduate degree in Sociology, and later graduated with her JD from Indiana University McKinney School of Law in May 2022. She started with LexisNexis in September 2022 as a Telephonic Practice Area Consultant in the Large Law Segment and later moved on to Small Law as a Solutions Consultant. She currently resides in Colorado Springs but her territory covers Colorado, Kansas, Missouri, Montana, Wyoming, Utah, and Nevada.
