Pot may be legal in Colorado, but you can still be fired for using it.
The state Supreme Court ruled 5-1 Monday that a medical marijuana patient who was fired after failing a drug test cannot get his job back.
The case was being watched closely by employers and pot smokers in states that have legalized medical or recreational marijuana.
Colorado became the fourth state in which courts have ruled against medical marijuana patients fired for pot use. Supreme courts in California, Montana and Washington state have made similar rulings.
The Colorado worker, Brandon Coats, is a quadriplegic who was fired by Dish Network after failing a drug test in 2010. The company agreed that Coats wasn’t high on the job but said it has a zero-tolerance drug policy.
