Parliament clears the cannabis L.I. which will actualize the law passed to legalize the use of cannabis for medicinal and industrial purposes

On this episode of Let's be Blunt, Montel talks with the founder and executive director of the INDIGENOUS CANNABIS INDUSTRY ASSOCIATION, Rob PeRo and Mary Jane Oatman. The ICIA uplifts cannabis economic development by advocating for equitable policy reform, empowering communities through education and destigmatization, and building connection through programming that brings together cannabis and hemp industry professionals, Tribal leaders, government officials, and advocacy organizations.

With a firm belief in cognitive liberty and personal autonomy, he champions these causes through his legal practice. Operating primarily virtually and based in Denver, Colorado, Robert represents an extensive spectrum of clients in the burgeoning psychedelic field, including therapists, healing centers, facilitators, non-profit organizations, and entrepreneurs. A proud University of Colorado Law School graduate, Robert's legal career spans over a decade in complex, high-stakes commercial litigation. In 2015, he shifted his focus to representing clients in the cannabis industry, a practice that has since evolved to center mainly on those working within the psychedelic domain. As the Chair of the New York City Bar Association Psychedelic Law Subcommittee, Robert tirelessly advocates for reforming psychedelic laws in New York and beyond. When not diligently working for his clients, Robert can often be found exploring nature, foraging for edible and medicinal mushrooms and plants. His multifaceted interests and passion for his field make him a valuable ally in the legal complexities of the psychedelic space. http://www.rrushlaw.com/

Is practicing law all dusting off established precedents and applying old case law? No way. Guest Jessica Gonzalez shares how she broke free, followed her passions, and found herself a pioneer in the wildly evolving arena of cannabis law. Gonzalez started in the usual practice of law for a firm after graduating. Contracts, paperwork, and a less-than-satisfying experience. Then, she started looking at the emerging field of cannabis law. Trademark protections, navigating vague state regulations, labeling, packaging, and CBD guidelines all need a lawyer's touch. And few lawyers were serving the industry, one of the fastest-growing sectors worldwide. Hear how Gonzalez followed her dreams, cultivated her personal brand, and forged ahead into an exciting and unknown world. She shares tips for getting established as a thought leader and building a recognizable brand as she created a consultancy business and educational programs and began teaching cannabis issues at the graduate level. Looking for a career in an emerging area of the law and “building the airplane as you fly?” Be part of legal history and set the precedents instead of following them. This is a fast-paced, creative part of the legal world that's just getting started. Christina Gregg served as the associate producer on this episode of Young Lawyer Rising.

Cannabis businesses who try to get creative to circumvent 280E often find themselves in precarious positions with the IRS. Since companies in the Cannabis industry are not able to legally take tax deductions due to its classification as a Schedule 1 drug, many try to get around 280E by setting up multiple entity structures to attempt to create partitions within their corporations, or use IRC 471 incorrectly, to take deductions like businesses in other industries. Tax courts have ruled against these techniques time and time again. Minimizing tax liability while being subject to 280E doesn't need to cause anxiety or fear if done correctly! On our latest podcast episode, attorney Nick Richards, partner and co-chair of the Cannabis Law practice group at Greenspoon Marder, LLP, and DOPE CFO Founder Andrew Huzicker, CPA discuss how businesses may benefit from using tax code 471-C when doing their taxes, using Capital Asset Theory to treat costs under 280E as capital assets (under the 16th Amendment of the Constitution), and ways to take expenses at exit (even under 280E). --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/dopecfo/message

Dana Walsh Sivak, a Falcon Rappaport & Berkman Partner and Co-Chair for the Elder Law practice group and a member of the firm's Litigation and Cannabis Law practice groups, joins Diana on the podcast today. Their discussion focuses on the treatment of the elderly and their autonomy in decision-making.  Dana is passionate about safeguarding the rights of seniors, particularly concerning their usage of medically prescribed cannabis and matters of sexuality within assisted living environments. Join us for this candid and intimate conversation.   IN THIS EPISODE:   [00:33] Diane introduces Dana, and explains what the elder law encompasses [05:23] Dana speaks to the different generational mindsets toward cannabis and her feelings about patients making choices for their lives when they are capable [08:35] Dana explains The Compassionate Care Act and what obstacles were faced in creating the Act [13:38] What are the rules at healthcare facilities and assisted living situations regarding cannabis [18:49] Dana talks about lobbying Congress to get cannabis laws changed [20:55] Sexuality among seniors in assisted living and healthcare facilities [27:17]  Promoting agency in adulthood regardless of age    KEY TAKEAWAYS:   It is patently unfair to have a child decide for their parent when the parent is perfectly capable of deciding for themselves. Dana believes that doctors should be able to prescribe cannabis to patients in healthcare facilities and assisted living situations. Unfortunately, patients cannot receive the medication they need because of the restrictions of Medicaid.   RESOURCES:   Beyond the Balance Sheet Website   Falcon Rappaport & Berkman - Website   BIOGRAPHY:   Dana Walsh Sivak is a Partner at Falcon Rappaport & Berkman LLP, and serves as Co-Chair of the firm's Elder Law practice group, as well as a member of its Litigation and Cannabis Law practice groups. Dana has devoted much of her career to addressing legal issues involving the elderly, including Article 81 guardianships, complex Medicaid eligibility issues, nursing home litigation, and advocating for increased access to quality-of-life initiatives for the elderly in long-term care settings. Dana works closely with her clients and their families to craft individualized long-term care plans, which include high-level Medicaid planning techniques that aim to preserve her client's assets and income while ensuring their continuous access to excellent care. Dana has a great deal of experience representing both individual clients and corporate healthcare facility clients on complex legal issues, allowing her to develop a unique perspective on issues facing seniors and obtain a great deal of experience assisting older New Yorkers in securing a payment source for the cost of their long-term care, often through the Medicaid program or private long-term care insurance. For many years, Dana has worked to expand access to medical cannabis to seniors, particularly those residing in nursing homes and assisted living facilities. In December 2019, Dana helped to spearhead and present the first conference on Long Island that focused on these issues, “Cannabis & Aging: The Business, Politics, Law & Science of Cannabis,” partnering with other highly regarded professionals in the cannabis industry. Dana frequently lectures to healthcare facilities and at regional conferences about the medical benefits of cannabis in the elderly population, advocating for increased access to medical cannabis for all seniors, regardless of their socioeconomic status.
