New Edition! Legal Guide to the Business of Marijuana

Legal Guide to the Business of Marijuana is a unique resource for lawyers who represent clients in what has been called the fastest growing industry in the United States. Many states now allow medical and/or recreational use of marijuana, but it remains illegal under the federal Controlled Substances Act. As a result, marijuana enterprises must operate in a legal and regulatory environment of uncertainty and rapid change, and lawyers representing these enterprises must tread carefully when advising clients.

Written by James T. O’Reilly, a lawyer and public health specialist, Legal Guide to the Business of Marijuana offers critical guidance to help lawyers effectively represent their clients while steering clear of seen and as yet unseen perils implicit in the continued federal-state conflict. Highlights of the 2019 Edition include:

  • Discussion and summary of the new laws in Michigan, Missouri, Oklahoma and Utah, the latest states to enact some form of legalization.
  • Coverage of the Agriculture Improvement Act of 2018 (the “2018 Farm Bill”), which legalized production of hemp nationwide while also retaining the regulatory power of the FDA over CBD products derived from hemp.
  • Updated state-by-state Appendix of cannabis-related statutes, regulation, and court cases

This essential treatise is available on PLI PLUS. If you would like to order a print copy, please contact libraryrelations@pli.edu.
