A recent Minnesota Star Tribune article details how Hellmuth & Johnson attorney Steven Forrest is helping nine Minnesota hemp businesses petition the Office of Administrative Hearings to block the Office of Cannabis Management’s new ban on mail-order THC edible sales. The retailers argue the agency bypassed proper rulemaking procedures when implementing the October restriction, which they say could eliminate 20% of revenue and disadvantage rural and homebound customers. Forrest represents the petitioners in this case, addressing the rule’s effects on the retailers and concerns about vulnerable consumers.
