The filing asks a Montgomery court to determine if the licensing process violated state law, and if so, to create a compliant process.
In a filing late last week, attorneys for Alabama Always – one of several medical cannabis companies that has filed suit against the Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission over its beleaguered licensing process – is asking a Montgomery County Circuit Court judge to put an end to the onslaught of arguments over technical legal matters and finally rule on whether the Commission violated Alabama law with its odd licensing process.
A status hearing is scheduled for Tuesday morning in the case, and it is expected that attorneys will push Judge James Anderson to move forward with the legal process – which has been stuck in neutral as the AMCC’s attorneys filed numerous, mostly technical motions seeking relief from the state appeals court.
Essentially, according to the filing, Alabama Always’ attorneys believe that certain undisputed facts in the case – mainly that the AMCC doesn’t contest the fact that its licensing process was set up in a manner that doesn’t adhere to requirements of the Alabama Administrative Procedures Act – give the court enough cause to start the process of determining how those errors can be corrected.
