The Nevada State Athletic Commission (NSAC) is likely to hear the case of Nick Diaz sometime in April, according to NSAC Executive Director Keith Kizer.
For now, Diaz is temporarily suspended.
Among the possible punishments Diaz faces, Kizer said the commission could levy fines, suspend him, as well as revoke or place conditions on the license.
“In the past, the norm for a positive test for marijuana is six months, but we have had two repeat offenders and they both got a 12-month suspension,” he said. “But that doesn’t necessarily mean that’s what will happen here.”
