Seven lawsuits have been filed in Cook County court by plaintiffs who said they suffer from debilitating conditions and that marijuana could be beneficial. So far, three judges have reversed the director's rejections of four conditions — post-traumatic stress disorder, irritable bowel syndrome, migraines and, most recently, chronic post-operative pain. The judges ruled that the director unjustly included his own review of the conditions in his determinations, rather than limiting himself to the evidence before the advisory board.
