Cáñamo-CBD: El Departamento de Agricultura de los Estados Unidos (USDA) reabre el plazo para presentar comentarios durante 30 días sobre la normativa provisional sobre el cáñamo.

Everyone in the hemp industry knows that last fall the U.S. Department of Agriculture (“USDA”) released its interim hemp rules governing the production of hemp. Our hemp-CBD attorneys have written extensively about the new hemp rules and their shortcomings, as well as the panoply of different hemp regulations at the state level and the DEA’s

Requisitos de etiquetado del CBD de cáñamo: cómo mitigar el riesgo

Every week, clients ask us to review their hemp-derived cannabidiol (“Hemp CBD”) products to ensure “full compliance.” Unfortunately, given the patchwork of often conflicting state labeling laws, and the lack of a federal pathway for the sale and marketing of these products, it is virtually impossible for Hemp CBD stakeholders to meet compliance standards. Consequently,

The Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) issued an interim final rule on hemp (“DEA hemp rule” or “rule”) on August 20, 2020. As per the DEA’s own executive summary, the rule “merely conforms DEA’s regulations to the statutory amendments to the [Controlled Substances Act (CSA)] that have already taken effect, and it does not add additional

Reclamaciones en virtud de la TCPA: ¿acudirá el Tribunal Supremo al rescate?

After we discussed TCPA claims in our last webinar, we received a few follow-up questions relating to the somewhat recent Supreme Court decision in Barr v.

El NIST y la FDA podrían ser los héroes que necesitamos para garantizar la calidad del cannabis.

A lo largo de los años, hemos señalado los casos en los que las agencias federales optan por ignorar la ilegalidad federal del cannabis. Esto ocurre con más frecuencia de lo que cabría pensar, dependiendo del tema (véase, por ejemplo, la NLRB). Sin embargo, hay una agencia que, sorprendentemente, nunca ha movido un dedo contra el cannabis legal a nivel estatal —aunque sí está analizando más de cerca el CBD— y es

Certificación B Corp: ¿otra forma de legitimar la industria del CBD derivado del cáñamo?

For the past eighteen months, hemp stakeholders have been begging the federal government to regulate the hemp-derived cannabidiol (“Hemp CBD”) industry. As of date, the Food and Drug Administration (the “FDA”) has received over 4,000 comments from shareholders on the safety, manufacturing, product quality, marketing, labeling, and sale of Hemp CBD products.
