A car accident crushed Brandon Coats’ upper spine when he was 16, leaving him unable to walk. Marijuana provides relief from intense pain. His former employer, Dish Network, fired him when he failed a drug test. Now, Brandon is taking his case to the Colorado Supreme Court with the question, “If you’re in the privacy of your own home, you’re registered with the state and abiding by the constitutional amendment, can your employer still fire you?”
