New York City Law on Illegal Pot Shops Ruled Unconstitutional

Reported 28 days ago

A New York City law enabling the padlocking of suspected illegal marijuana shops has been declared unconstitutional by a judge, who ruled it infringes on store owners' rights. The ruling stems from a case involving a Queens business that was shut down despite evidence indicating it was not operating illegally at the time of inspection. The city plans to appeal the decision, while the attorney representing the affected business anticipates numerous stores will reopen and seek damages.
