NY judge fines unlicensed cannabis shops $15 million

It’s their corner now

“This punishment should serve as a clear warning for all unlicensed cannabis stores in the state: we will enforce the law and shut down your operations,” state Attorney General Letitia James said

The owner of seven unlicensed cannabis shops in New York, known for hosting an Easter egg hunt as part of their promotions, has been fined over $15 million by state officials for repeatedly disregarding orders to cease operations without proper approval.

A state Supreme Court justice in Lyons, New York, levied a fine against David Tulley on Wednesday. Acting Justice Richard Healy ordered Tulley to pay 90% of his gross sales from February 2022 to May 2023, along with $10,000 for each day he operated without licenses.
