from U.S. attorney Melinda Haag for the northern

Lynnette Shaw, owner of the Marian Alliance for
Medical Marijuana, which calls itself the oldest
medical marijuana dispensary in the state, said her
landlord is planning to evict the business from the
premises, though Shaw is hoping to obtain a court

Shaw said she has obeyed all state laws for 15 years
and never diverted medicine for non-medical

fearful of the Justice Department's threats.
