*New Lawyer and New Strategy In Kubby Case. *

*For Immediate Release*

*February 20, 2006** *

*For more info contact Michele [at] kubby.com*

***Auburn**, Ca: On Wednesday, February 15th, the **Placer Court** and Prosecutor's office were informed that well-known **San Francisco** defense attorney J. David Nick has agreed to represent Steve Kubby, the cancer patient now jailed in **Auburn**.*

*Nick was unable to attend the hearings last week, but E.D. Lerman, from Mendocino, filled in for Nick. In a move that may have surprised the prosecution, the new Kubby defense team rejected the 120 day misdemeanor jail sentence the Placer D.A.'s office had offered. In stead, Kubby is asserting his right to be re-sentenced as a felon by Judge John L.

Cosgrove, the original trial judge. A felony sentencing hearing provides Kubby with new rights not available to him under misdemeanor sentencing

rules.*

*Prosecutor Christopher Cattran has not swayed from his original stand, strenuously demanding Kubby be sent to jail for refusing probation, or registered as a drug offender, and that he be forbidden from using medical marijuana, without any further delay. *

*While it seems that Marinol may be temporarily controlling Kubby's high blood pressure, which is a symptom of his cancer, there is great concern that the lack of the other cannabinoids will allow Kubby's adrenal cancer to grow. Whole cannabis has "miraculously" controlled Kubby's cancer for over 30 years, while leading doctors claim that he should have died decades ago. **Placer** **County** refuses to provide Marinol to Steve while he is under their custody. If Steve cannot arrange for the acquisition of his life sustaining Marinol, he could die in jail from acute symptoms of his cancer.*

*Marinol is a pharmaceutical form of synthetic THC.*

*Consequently, the Court has presently scheduled a re-sentencing hearing for Kubby on March 3rd at **8:30 AM**. David Nick will argue that Kubby should be sentenced to probation. *

*Michele Kubby expressed her gratitude to Dr. Tod Mikuriya, her husband's physician in California, who has written the prescription for the Marinol.*

*Mrs. Kubby added, "Dr. Mikuriya is also under attack, as is anyone involved with marijuana. Currently he is facing persecution by the **California** Medical Association for bravely recommending cannabis to a wide variety of patients. He is facing a fine of over $75,000 for his brave stand.*

*Without Dr. Mikuriya 's support, Steve would not be alive today. He made sure that Steve had Marinol when he checked into the **Placer** **County** jail having a hypertensive blood pressure attack."*

*Mrs. Kubby also expressed her thanks to others: "The Marinol would not have been there without the financial support of many organizations and individuals, some of which have raised money by collecting nickels, dimes, and quarters.

These are some of the following individuals and groups which have put up the money to keep Steve alive:

Compassionate Coalition

*ECO members:**

Danny Waldman**

*The dissemination of information is also vital to getting Steve out of jail sooner rather than later.

The following individuals have been tireless in this effort:*

*Marijuana.ca - Josh

Tom Suther, **Oroncon**, **MN**.*

*The Libertarian Party of **Clark County**, **Nevada** even passed a resolution at their convention to free Steve.

Latest update

Here is the latest from Michele about Steve: visit me http://myspace.com/medcannabis

------

Placer County has forced Steve into a hypertensive episode to prove him incorrect about the medical value of cannabis in his life. They have ridiculed him, mocked him, and forced him to live a demeaning life for the last few weeks. All because the Law Enforcement, Judicial, Medical, and City Officials did not want to admit that marijuana has ample medical efficacy for many different ailments.

As you all know Steve has lost weight while being incarcerated, he has not been able to follow his very strict health diet, nor take any of his life saving medicine. Steve was finally given Marinol as a joke by the medical staff. The staff knew it was a farce and that medical marijuana really did not exist and that traditional medicines can work for Steve and they tried to prove it with this inhumane experiment at the risk of this man.

Well, all of a sudden the tables have turned!

Yes! The Placer County Law Enforcement at the jail is standing utterly amazed! Since the first dose of Marinol, Steve has been experiencing small amounts relief from the benefits of the one cannabinoid in Marinol - THC. The very same people that were mocking and ridiculing Steve and telling him he needed to fess up to the truth and tell everyone that medical marijuana was a farce are calling him "Mr. Kubby." They are beginning to see the error of their ways because Steve has now proven the exact opposite! The Jail has even tried to make his special Tofu Salad diet for him.

Cannabis is Medicine!

Placer County set out to prove Fraud and got the truth instead. Justice is closer [than it ever has been] at this moment.

The medical staff (Dr.'s and Nurses) are telling Steve that they had no idea about the medical efficacy of marijuana and that it could actually help the way it has for him. They are all telling him that he should not be in jail, but rather, out being studied so marijuana cannabinoids can be studied to find out whey they have been working so well for him.

This is very exciting news and if any of you would like to give Michele a call an give her your sentiments, then call her on her cell phone @ 250-318-7118.

Thanks everyone and keep up all the support!
