A Michigan man has sued Walmart for firing him after he tested positive for medical marijuana he was using legally to treat pain from an inoperable brain tumor and sinus cancer. Joselph Casias, 30, said he was fired late last year after five years of employment at Walmart in his hometown of Battle Creek, Michigan. Casias began using pot on his oncologist’s recommendation after Michigan voters had approved medical marijuana use in 2008. He tested positive after he had twisted his knee at work, under a Walmart policy requiring tests for all employees injured on the job.
