What is the Affirmative Defense(AD)?
The AD can be viewed Here. We recommend that you familiarize yourself with it. The AD is used after you have been arrested and are going to court. Tell your lawyer about how you feel you fall under the AD and direct him here if need be so he can better acquaint himself with the AD and the law. You can still use the AD even after you have registered with the state. The card just protects you from arrest, as long as you are within the guidelines, whereas the AD protects you from conviction.
