Restricting Medical Dispensaries with Detroit’s New Ordinance Will Hurt Medical Ma*****na Businesses, and Their Business Partners

If you follow the Michigan cannabis industry at all, you are well aware that the City of Detroit has just passed an updated ordinance creating a recreational licensing program and is finally bringing recreational cannabis to the city. The ordinance has long been awaited as Michigan and Detroit legalized and then respectively opted into recreational cannabis in 2018. However, the city still does not have any recreational cannabis businesses within it.

Fluresh LLC Obtains Largest Cannabis Commercial Financing Ever

It is no secret that one of the largest obstacles for business owners in the cannabis industry is financing. The investors are certainly there at every level, from the individual angel investor, to medium-sized state investment firms, to large-scale commercial banks and blue-chip investment lenders. The issue arises at the large-scale banking level because those banks and investment firms are federally regulated entities – and cannabis is a federally illegal substance under the Controlled Substance Act (CSA) – meaning that despite numerous state legalizations, those entities cannot invest in any business that works with, or in any way touches, cannabis.

Scott Roberts Law is a boutique cannabis business law firm uniquely well-equipped to get your cannabis business growing.

A very recent decision by the federal court for the Ninth Circuit of Appeals in California granted an injunction that has the potential to give delta-8 THC legal status across the U.S. The issue of the case, AK Futures v. Boyd Street Distro, focused on a claim by AK Futures that the defendant was illegally selling a counterfeit version of its properly-trademarked products without AK’s consent. In its defense, Boyd Street Distro claimed that it indeed could sell the “allegedly-counterfeit” products because these products contained delta-8 THC, making them federally illegal and therefore impossible to be protected by trademark. Thus, the crux of the issue hinged on whether or not delta-8 THC is considered federally legal or illegal under the 2018 Agriculture Improvement Act (Farm Bill).

Whether we call it Ma*****na, Ma*****na, or Cannabis, Michiganders statewide have voted (several times now) to give themselves the right to have and enjoy Ma*****na legally inside the state. But what does that mean exactly as far as the right to establish a business that grows, sells, and distributes cannabis (ma*****na, or ma*****na)?

What you may not know is how cannabis business licensing in your cities and counties work. For aspiring cannabis entrepreneurs, this is where things get complicated.

The Cannabis Regulatory Agency of Michigan (CRA), formerly the Ma*****na Regulatory Agency (MRA), is virtually the same agency post name-change. In an effort to recognize the proper scientific name of the product it monitors, the Cannabis Regulatory Agency has released a new set of Best Practices for all CRA stakeholders. These new practices will add to the prior regulations updates released by the MRA last year. The new Best Practices release follows on the heels of the rebrand from MRA to CRA –the new set touches on nearly every aspect of how to stay compliant in the cannabis industry of Michigan.

The CRA details the proper destruction-of-products methods for noncompliant & unmarketable products.

It is well-established that cannabis is a federally illegal substance, no matter what the States think. Consequently, legal cannabis still has intense federal scrutiny, and federal restrictions. This scrutiny will become a substantial roadblock for legacy cannabis companies as they scale, increase their volume, and grow larger profits.

The cannabis industry’s exponential growth is catching up to itself – recent market price values show that the vast number of cultivators ...

In July of 2021, the MRA filed new proposed rules that reflect what the agency deemed missing in its current versions of Michigan ma*****na laws. Many of the changes have to do with regulatory affairs and internal clarification for the MRA as far as definitions, but there are a number of changes that will have direct effects on recreational and medical ma*****na businesses alike.

Michigan is now one of a few states around the country that has achieved legalization of both medical and recreational ma*****na for a few years, thanks to a forward thinking legislature as well as voters.
