$MDBX Commends California Lawmakers on Marijuana Legislation

Interim CEO Jeff Goh: Laws Set Precedent for Bringing Legitimacy and Safety to Marijuana Industry and Patients

Jeff Goh, interim chief executive officer of Medbox, Inc. (OTCQB: MDBX), today said the legislation approved in California to regulate and license medical marijuana, which is expected to be signed by Governor Brown, is a landmark decision that provides the necessary regulatory framework to bring legitimacy to a burgeoning industry and safety to patients.

“This legislation aligns perfectly with Medbox’s focus to ultimately help patients obtain the safest and highest quality medicine, as well as ensure dispensaries, cultivation centers, and manufacturers apply superior safety standards to their operations,” Goh said. “We, as business leaders, have come a long way in legitimizing an industry that is still in its infancy, and these laws further perpetuate the regulatory progress needed to improve the lives of patients.”

“I commend the California lawmakers who had the foresight to establish such a framework, which will undoubtedly have implications and positive outcomes for the rest of the country,” Goh added.
