CBD oil caused me to have job offer revoked.

Regardless of the legality, in KY, you still have to contend with Federal laws as well.

And, there, you have the DEA saying it's OK., a court challenge to that rule, and then an appeal's court challenge, which, at present, leaves the DEA rule in place.

This rule allows for hemp based CBD, with less than .3% THC. However, since this is unregulated by the FDA, given your positive drug test, there is a very likely possibility that the oil you obtained from your doctor was above the legal limits.

Even if it is not, there is a lot of legal ambiguity on this issue that remains unresolved. And, he now has a patient running around looking for a legal remedy due to an unregulated, ambiguously legal substance he gave you.

It is incredibly stupid for the doctor to be handing it out in his office. This is why I was, and remain, surprised that a doctor would do this... and is why I asked the question.
