A class action lawsuit filed against several Illinois-based cannabis companies claims the firms labeled cannabis-infused products as concentrates in order to exceed state limits on THC, Forbes reports. The lawsuit was filed by Chad Alsip, a cannabis consumer, against Wellness Group Pharms and its affiliates, and several entities under Acreage Holdings.
Alsip-v-AcreageIn the lawsuit, the plaintiffs allege that the defendants mislabeled their vape oils as cannabis concentrates which are not subject to the same THC limits as cannabis infused products which allowed consumers to purchase more THC than allowed under state law.
For example, instead of being limited to 500 milligrams of THC in cannabis-infused products, a customer could buy a total of 5 grams of vape oils – 11 times the legal limit – and then be able to purchase another 500 milligrams of cannabis-infused products.
