P. v. Fontana CA1/2
In 2014, William Fontana pleaded no contest to a felony charge of driving under the influence causing injury and admitted a prior conviction for driving under the influence. He was granted probation under conditions that prohibited him from using any non-prescribed or illegal substances, including medical marijuana, unless authorized by the court, and required him to complete an outpatient treatment program if so directed by the probation department. In 2017, Fontana admitted that he violated the conditions of his probation by using marijuana and failing to participate in a drug treatment program. In connection with the sentencing on his probation violation, he asked the trial court to allow him to use medical marijuana.
