State Licensing: Navigating New Jersey's Cannabis Regulations

In this session, hear from attorneys who are actively working on applications in the Garden State and with clients who are investing in New Jersey or otherwise gearing up for future submissions. Learn about unique-to-New Jersey license types, such as the “Conditional License,” enabling prospective operators to apply for a license without site control (subject to income restrictions), the “Micro-license,” a 2500 square foot facility for which there are no caps (subject to residency requirements), priorities in licensing, and creative opportunities to participate in the market distinct from ownership (via “Financial Source Agreement” or “Management Services Agreement”). Also learn about how the regulatory process is unfolding and how administrative delays are impacting the licensing process and accompanying operational timelines and legal transactions.

STATEMENT OF THE INTERNATIONAL CANNABIS BAR ASSOCIATION REGARDING DEA’S PROPOSAL TO RESCHEDULE CANNABIS TO SCHEDULE III

"INCBA commends President Biden for leading the push to move marijuana from Schedule I to Schedule III.

This move marks a crucial step towards harmonizing federal law with states and the will of the majority of Americans that continue to call for cannabis legalization. By taking this critical step, we can begin to foster a cohesive national regulatory landscape and a sustainable cannabis industry.
