In Delaware, the legality of marijuana is split between medical and recreational use. The state passed a bill in 2011 that allowed for the medical use of marijuana. This means that patients with certain conditions can possess and use marijuana legally if they are registered with the state's Medical Marijuana Program.
However, recreational use of marijuana is still considered illegal under state law. While there have been legislative efforts to change this, none have been successful thus far.
So, while registered patients can legally possess and consume marijuana for therapeutic purposes, non-medical or recreational usage is not permitted in Delaware at this time.
As always, it's important to remember that while this summary provides a general overview it should not be used as legal advice. For specific inquiries or concerns always consult with an attorney or other knowledgeable local source.*
