Joseph Tully, a nationally recognized criminal defense attorney and certified Criminal Law Specialist, is leading the charge to challenge outdated and discriminatory cannabis laws—not just in California, but federally. Drawing from constitutional law and his deep courtroom experience, Tully has developed a bold Equal Protection Clause argument to defend cannabis defendants across the U.S.

And now, he’s offering a free copy of his Equal Protection Clause motion to other attorneys, advocates, and defendants ready to fight back.

Despite widespread legalization of cannabis in dozens of states, federal law continues to classify cannabis as a Schedule I drug—on par with heroin, and more restricted than methamphetamine. This contradiction creates unequal treatment under the law depending on where a person lives.

Joseph Tully’s federal Equal Protection Clause argument aims to expose and challenge this injustice. Here’s the core of the claim:

It violates the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution to prosecute people federally for cannabis offenses in states where the same behavior is legal under state law.

In other words, how can a person in California or Colorado legally cultivate cannabis while someone in Texas or Alabama faces federal prison time for the same act?

Tully argues that geographic disparity in federal cannabis enforcement is unconstitutional—an argument rooted in Fourteenth Amendment protections and supported by the government’s own evolving policies (such as the Cole Memorandum, rescheduling talks, and federal non-enforcement zones).

Joseph Tully isn’t just theorizing—he’s putting this into action. His Equal Protection motion is part of an aggressive and innovative pre-trial defense strategy for cannabis-related charges in California and beyond.

Tully has a track record of winning cannabis cases, including:

• Complete dismissals of felony cultivation charges

• Jury acquittals in cannabis distribution cases

• Exclusion of illegally obtained evidence

• Successful challenges to search warrants, including Fourth Amendment arguments paired with Equal Protection claims

His legal writing has been described as “meticulous,” “cutting-edge,” and “on the pulse of the evolving cannabis landscape.”
