So let me get this right. Selling pot is against federal law but legal under Colorado law. The Feds only enforce the federal law if you decide to sell outside the state.

Can a judge hold the officials in contempt for not upholding the law? Will they?

Banks with a federal charter, lawyers , insurance companies, commercial property owners, etc. all risk losing their charter, real estate, etc. if they knowingly violate federal laws.

I know of no precedent nor statutory basis for such a holding.
