In an advisory opinion issued Thursday, the Florida Supreme Court tossed a proposed ballot measure that would have added a state constitutional amendment legalizing some types of recreational marijuana use. Critics attacked the court’s ruling as a thinly-veiled effort to legislate from the bench.
In a 5-2 decision, Florida’s conservative high court came down against the proposal and struck it from the 2022 ballot on the premise that the initiative’s summary language lacked clarity.
According to the opinion, the ballot initiative’s summary would have read as follows:
