New Jersey Medical Marijuana Expansion Put On Hold
The planned expansion of New Jersey’s medical marijuana sector could be delayed after the state Department of Health hit a legal snag.
Earlier this year the Garden State announced it would issue 108 extra licenses to cannabis businesses, comprising 54 dispensary licenses, 30 processing permits, and 24 cultivation licenses. It received 190 applications for those 24 cultivation licenses and it disqualified 51 of them for reasons ranging from corrupted files to lack of local approval, lack of site control and the non-payment of fees.
