With booming sales comes the prospect of booming litigation. As the number of cannabis users increases, so too will the number of actual or suspected side effects from such use. Just as with other products ingested by consumers—ranging from ordinary food and beverages to more heavily regulated items like pharmaceuticals, alcohol and cigarettes—at least some of these alleged side effects will inevitably result in lawsuits. While consumers (and lawyers) would never have sued a street-corner dealer after a bad reaction, they will sue a legal cultivator or seller, particularly as such companies become larger, more sophisticated and better funded.
The Medical and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (“MAUCRSA” ), which became effective January 1, 2018, is the governing law for both medical and adult use of cannabis in California. The rules are complex. Cannabis businesses seeking to do business in California should consult with an attorney prior to engaging in any project to ensure full understanding of the most up-to-date rules.
Ardin, as he’s known, made his way from San Francisco to Hollywood to develop his own content ideas to work with brands and innovators to sidestep the advertising challenges that cannabis faces today. In 2016, he walked away from a 10-year career in marketing and today, he is a professional comedian, actor, and writer.

He’s written a series of 52 radio plays for a segment called, “High Time Story Time” (on Amazon) and has a popular late night show, The Night Space, on Mutiny Radio
CBD products are everywhere – including tinctures, creams, gummies, pills, and drinks. But is it legal to buy, sell, and produce them? The answer may depend on where you are. In the December 2018 Farm Bill, the federal government removed CBD (and industrial hemp and all cannabis derivatives with less than 0.3% THC) from the Controlled Substances Act altogether. But that is not the end of the story, as the FDA continues to regulate CBD products through enforcement of the Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act, and state governments also have restrictions. Federal and state laws are changing quickly in this area, so anyone involved with these products is encouraged to consult with a lawyer and stay informed on recent developments.

We are again writing on the topic of representation because the failure the above referenced agencies to take into account the importance of qualified representation is one of the reasons California’s roll-out of the regulation of the cannabis industry has been described as maladroit. We are not qualified to make recommendations regarding the qualifications BCC, CDPH and CDFA should establish for representatives, although we note that duly licensed attorneys have the authority as a matter of law to represent clients before administrative agencies.
Good morning. My name is Rob Hendrix and I am the founder of Cannabis Consulting Nationwide. I came to this place by taking the leap of faith in Washington State's Initiative 502 which as you probably are aware created the legal, adult-use Cannabis market in Washington State. I opened my retail Cannabis shop, Cannabis Central of Ellensburg, on August 25, 2014. The vetting process to make myself eligible for the Lottery system in order to obtain a retail Cannabis was in a word, grueling. Opening the shop was a shock; to my community, my friends, my family.

Given the drama of 2018, making predictions about the timetable of future political developments has proven to be a fool’s errand. It seems clear that both New Jersey and New York are on the path to fully legalize the adult use of cannabis, potentially in 2019. The optimistic forecasts of impending action in New Jersey have been thwarted again and again by the realities and in-fighting of local politics. In Pennsylvania, it is too early to tell whether Governor Wolf’s recent comments represent mere rhetoric or a more substantive change in direction.
You wouldn't expect anything less from Singapore's Law & Home Affairs Minister K Shanmugam and if we are all honest with ourselves there's a element of truth in what he says. He believes pharmaceutical companies are hiding their intentions behind a smokescreen when it comes to cannabis. He describes the trend of accepting cannabis medical use is driven by the “power of money and propaganda”.

The 2018 U.S. Farm Bill has opened the gates to industrial hemp farming. Hemp, a crop that has been banned in the United States since 1937, now may be legally grown. While the most popular product of hemp − oils containing cannabidiol (CBD) and other naturally occurring non-psychoactive cannabinoids − are still subject to conflicting federal and state regulations, the plant itself may be grown across the United States.
Gov Newsom signed an order than will redeploy 360 National Guard soldiers from the Mexico border to several other assignments. Some will be sent to northern California to seek illegal cannabis farms; 150 soldiers will be also assigned to the National Guard Counterdrug Task Force, with 100 more assigned to police smugglers at “existing border checkpoints.”

Quietly Pennsylvania's medical program has been put into play and although the market isn't a CA or CO if the numbers are extrapolated from the patient base it's a new steady tax revenue for the state and even better so for the likes of Canopy, Aurora et al.
