Marijuana retailer drops lawsuit against City of Ypsilanti

Marijuana retailer drops lawsuit against City of Ypsilanti

YPSILANTI, MI – Less than four months after a company sued Ypsilanti over the city’s marijuana business licensing process, the company has dropped the legal claims.

AMA Operations, LLC — a company that sought one of 10 local marijuana retailer permits — alleged in a lawsuit filed in December the process the city used to dole out the permits broke Michigan law and resulted in “preferential treatment” for competitors.

The company took issue with a scoring system used to rank applicants and sought a court order to nullify some competitors’ permits.

In January, city leaders authorized retaining an outside attorney specializing in marijuana-related litigation, Michael Komorn and his firm Komorn Law, to assist with the litigation.

In Ypsilanti, local marijuana permits have been a significant money-maker for the city, this year bringing in $338,000 in funds city leaders have in the past dedicated to social equity programs.

The Definition of Marijuana was Amended in Michigan

The Definition of Marijuana was Amended in Michigan

EFFECTIVE OCTOBER 11, 2021 *****

On July 13, 2021, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer signed legislation making changes to how marijuana is defined and regulated in the state, including products containing synthetic cannabis derivatives.

HB 4517 revised the definition under the Michigan Regulation and Taxation of Marihuana Act (MRTMA) to include all compounds containing more than .3% of THC, and creates a new definition of “THC” that includes any tetrahydrocannabolic acid, including synthetically derived products and isomers.

The definition of “industrial hemp” was also amended in the Act to be consistent with these changes. HB 4740, 4741, 4742, and 4743, amends the Michigan Medical Marijuana Facilities Licensing Act (MMFLA), the Industrial Hemp Growers Act (Public Act 220 of 2020), the Marihuana Tracking Act, and the Public Health Code.

New Definition

As a result of these changes, effective October 11, 2021, products containing more than .3% of any THC product, including synthetically derived Delta-8 THC, will be considered “marijuana” products regulated by the state’s marijuana regulatory structure. 

Marijuana/marihuana is still a Schedule 1 Drug under the Michigan Public Health Code MCL 333.7212.

”Except as provided in subsection (2), Marihuana, including

pharmaceutical-grade cannabis” “(2) Marihuana, including pharmaceutical-grade cannabis, is a schedule 2 controlled substance if it is manufactured, obtained, stored, dispensed, possessed, grown, or disposed of in compliance with this act and as authorized by federal authority.”

Lawmakers in Mexico Fail To Legalize Marijuana Ahead Of Deadline

Lawmakers in Mexico Fail To Legalize Marijuana Ahead Of Deadline

Lawmakers in Mexico Fail To Legalize Marijuana Ahead Of Supreme Court Deadline to end marijuana prohibition after spending months going back and forth on a legalization bill that passed both chambers of Congress in differing forms.

The result is a lot of uncertainty. The court first deemed prohibition unconstitutional in 2018, ordering legislators to enact a policy change. While there has been progress in drafting and advancing legalization legislation in the years since. Senators have repeatedly requested deadline extensions that the court granted.

This session it appeared like the reform may finally be achieved. The Senate approved a legalization bill late last year, and then the Chamber of Deputies made revisions and passed it in March, sending it back to the originating chamber. A couple of Senate committees then took up and cleared the amended measure, but leaders quickly started signaling that certain revisions made the proposal unworkable.

Patients can use medical marijuana while on probation in Michigan, appeals court rules

Patients can use medical marijuana while on probation in Michigan, appeals court rules

AP) — Judges can’t prevent people from using medical marijuana while on probation for a crime, the Michigan Court of Appeals said.

Anyone holding a state-issued medical marijuana card is immune to possible penalties, the appeals court said, 3-0.

The court, however, cautioned that the decision does not apply to the recreational use of marijuana, which was approved by voters in 2018.

Michael Thue was barred from using medical marijuana while on probation for a year in a road rage incident in the Traverse City area. A District Court judge said the marijuana ban was the policy of Circuit Court judges in Grand Traverse County.

Circuit Judge Thomas Power declined to hear an appeal.

The appeals court said Power made the wrong call, based on a line of decisions from the Michigan Supreme Court and the language of the medical marijuana law.

The law “preempts or supersedes ordinances and statutes that conflict” with it, said judges Mark Cavanagh, Deborah Servitto and Thomas Cameron.

The Attorney

Medical marijuana patients have had their doctor recommended use of cannabis while on probation in limbo for a long time.

Lead trial attorney and advocate for marijuana law reform Michael Komorn and his dedicated team of attorneys (specifically Ally McCormick) secured a victory in the Michigan Court of Appeals for Medical Marijuana Patients

As many battles for marijuana patientscaregivers and business clients represented by the Komorn Law Firm loom in the background – a decision has been made to set the tone for future cases involving those on probation.
