Alex presented a program titled “Cannabis Law: The Basics and Recent Developments” to the New York State Judicial Institute of the Unified Court System. This “lunch and learn” program format provided an overview of recent legal developments and emerging trends, with the goal of providing an analytical framework for New York state judges, court attorneys, and law clerks, on timely topics.
Alex’s presentation focused on the federal legal framework, the effect of New York’s recent legalization, and potential litigation that the courts are likely to deal with based on earlier legalization efforts in other states.
