Three employees with the Montana Caregivers Network, a group involved in helping patients receive medical marijuana cards, have resigned from the organization.
An anonymous e-mail to KRTV said they left after Network founder Jason Christ tried to get them to forge doctor's signatures on medical marijuana recommendations.
Network officials say there is no truth to the accusations.
Chris Arneson, Public Information Officer for the Montana Caregivers Network, said, "It's impossible to forge a doctor's note because we have the DPHHS (Department of Public Health and Human Services) and their job is, beginning to end, is to make sure that everyone who has a card needs a card and everyone is validated."
Arneson confirmed the employees did leave the network but says he is unable to discuss the reasons why due to privacy laws.
