    If you have clients in the cannabis industry, you may be interested in an article in Marijuana Moment published yesterday.  I delve into the recent decision, U.S. v. Sirois, where the First Circuit clarifies how criminal defendants could potentially convince a trial court to issue an injunction against prosecutors, essentially halting a prosecution against two ME caregivers for violations of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA).  You can access it through MM https://www.marijuanamoment.net/federal-court-clarifies-standard-for-marijuana-caregivers-seeking-protection-from-doj-prosecution-op-ed/ or LinkedIn https://lnkd.in/gK6BrPFZ.
