Nebraska voters overwhelmingly approved a pair of medical marijuana initiatives last November .

John Kuehn , a former Republican state senator, tried to block the initiatives by arguing that many of the signatures that put them on the ballot were invalid.

A judge rejected that challenge, allowing authorized patients to possess up to five ounces of marijuana .

The initiative does not specify which medical conditions can be treated with cannabis.
