Sort of! Weed is partially legal in Montgomery.
Overview
In Montgomery, Alabama, United States, the legality of cannabis is quite clear. Medical cannabis is legal under the Darren Wesley 'Ato' Hall Compassion Act, which was signed into law in May 2021. This law allows for the use of medical cannabis for certain qualifying conditions, but it does not permit the use of raw cannabis or smoking. On the other hand, recreational cannabis remains illegal in Alabama, with possession and use punishable by law.
When it comes to related substances such as Delta 8, Delta 9, THCA, and CBD, the laws are a bit more complex. Delta 8 and Delta 9 are forms of THC, the psychoactive compound in cannabis, and are therefore subject to the same restrictions as cannabis. THCA, or tetrahydrocannabinolic acid, is a non-psychoactive compound found in raw and live cannabis and is also covered under the medical cannabis law. CBD, or cannabidiol, is legal in Alabama as long as it is derived from industrial hemp and contains less than 0.3% THC.
