Judge rules Hempfest can be held

Ohio Hempfest, an annual pro-marijuana event at Ohio State University, will go on this weekend as planned, a judge ruled Friday. The event's organizers were notified Tuesday that the university was canceling the event, which draws thousands of people. University officials said organizers did not follow the rules and they were concerned about public safety. The festival's organizer, Students for Sensible Drug Policy, then asked U.S. District Court Judge Algenon Marbley to overturn the university's decision to cancel the event.
