Arkansas Judge Rules MMJ Cultivation Licenses ‘Null and Void’

By TG Branfalt

Arkansas Judge Wendell Griffen has declared the state’s medical cannabis cultivation licenses “null and void” finding that the state Medical Marijuana Commissiondisregarded the licensing rules in the voter-approved amendment, according to a 40/29report.

In the ruling, the judge said that the commission failed to verify the sites’ distances from schools, churches, and daycares, and failed to evaluate whether individuals listed on the applications were ever affiliated with “entities whose corporate status has been revoked for failure to pay franchise taxes.” Griffen also found that two members of the commission had a financial relationship with two people with ownership stakes in the cultivation centers.
