The Michigan Medical Marijuana Act includes enhanced penalties against anyone tempted to divert to the illicit market. Making false statement regarding the use and possession of medical marijuana is punishable by an additional $500 fine on top of any other penalty related to the use and possession. And diversion of medical marijuana to the illicit market is punishable by a $2,000 fine and 2 years imprisonment.
