Relocate Title 12 Marijuana To New Title 44

Medical marijuana - retail marijuana - title 12 recodification study - relocation. Committee on Legal Services. Current law directs the office of legislative legal services to study the organizational recodification of title 12, Colorado Revised Statutes, which relates to professions and occupations. One recommendation of the study is to relocate laws located in title 12 that are administered by the department of revenue to a new title 44, which will consist solely of laws administered by the department of revenue that regulate a variety of activities.

To implement this recommendation, the act creates title 44, Colorado Revised Statutes, and relocates article 43.3 of title 12, medical marijuana, to a new article 11 in the new title 44 and relocates article 43.4 of title 12, retail marijuana, to a new article 12 in the new title 44. The act makes conforming amendments and repeals the statutes where the law was previously codified.
