B.C. appeal court rules marijuana grower must give up his house

VANCOUVER - The B.C. Court of Appeal has upheld a Lower Mainland man's jail sentence and forfeiture of his home worth more than $380,000.
When police searched Van My Luu's Langley, B.C., home in 2004 they found a basement full of marijuana plants with an
estimated crop value of $110,000. His wife and two small children also lived in the home.

Luu appealed, saying the house was the family home and both the sentence and the forfeiture of the home were excessive.

Justice Richard Low noted in his ruling that the man's illicit drug earnings maintained the mortgage and the family's lifestyle.

Low ruled Luu also failed to disclose his assets or reveal his true income and neither the one-year sentence nor the forfeiture was a disproportionate penalty.
