    Marijuana Odor and Smoke Coming from a Neighbor's Home
    What is a landlord's duty when a neighbor, also a tenant, is smoking marijuana and the smoke is getting into your unit?

    That will depend primarily on two things: First, if you're in a state in which their use is unlawful, and second, if your state's cigarette smoke laws extend to marijuana.

    If the smoking of marijuana is illegal in your state, you can contact the police when your neighbors are smoking marijuana.

    If your state's laws or local ordinances apply to marijuana smoke, you may have a remedy in relation if the complex's ventilation, weatherstripping, and the like are not up to standard.

    If the smoking of marijuana is against the complex rules, whatever other issues are involved, you can report the matter to your landlord and see if the landlord will enforce its rules. Note that it is not likely to be possible to prevent residents from smoking medical marijuana in their own homes.
