So what happens then?

I'm not sure if any of those legal issues apply here. If this was a criminal case, those issues would apply but this is not a criminal case. This is a license issue and the CHRB is responsible for granting licenses. I think they have a lot of leeway in deciding who they choose to license. If they revoke his license, he can try to get it overturned in the courts but I think the courts give a governing body like the CHRB a lot of discretion in deciding who gets licensed. If it went to court, the CHRB could show that P Val has violated the drug laws many times in the past and it may be irrelevant whether he violated it this time.
