SCOOP: Eaze lawyer grew “increasingly concerned” over Calif. partnerships
In May Eaze CEO Cory Azzalino received an email from the company’s general counsel that cast doubt on the legality of some of its partnerships. “PRIVILEGED AND CONFIDENTIAL” the lawyer wrote. “I am growing increasingly concerned about how our CA depots are run.”
“We haven’t gotten caught yet, but this could end up being a major issue at some point soon.”
Asked by WeedWeek about the agreements and email, CEO Azzalino wrote, “Eaze’s subsidiary Stachs LLC is licensed as an Owner (per [California Department of Cannabis Control] (DCC) regulations) at all thirteen of our delivery locations. Any operations governed by Management Services Agreements [MSAs] have been disclosed to the DCC. Any claim to the contrary is inaccurate.”
