New York State’s cannabis program has been a magnet for lawsuits that have stymied progress in issuing licenses and growing the industry.

In this episode Herb speaks with attorney Fatima Afia and covers the full range of lawsuits that have been filed against the NYS Office of Cannabis Management’s adult use program.
