Schedule III Cannabis Order Faces New Court Stay Request
Anti rescheduling parties asked the D.C. Circuit to pause the federal order moving state licensed medical cannabis to Schedule III. The bigger lesson is that federal cannabis reform remains exposed to litigation risk, and operators need backup plans around DEA registration, tax assumptions, capital access, and compliance timing.
Rhode Island Cannabis Residency Rules Could Restart The Licensing Race
Rhode Island lawmakers are considering a bill that would remove cannabis license residency requirements after a judge halted the state’s licensing process. The bigger lesson is that ownership rules, lawsuits, social equity language, and licensing delays can turn market access into real business risk.
RICO Class Action Raises The Stakes For Cannabis Product Claims And Litigation Risk
A new RICO class action against Cresco Labs, Green Thumb Industries, and Verano Holdings may signal a more aggressive phase of cannabis litigation. The bigger lesson for operators is that product claims, warnings, consumer disclosures, and insurance limits now deserve much tighter review.
