An academic publication by Dickinson Wright attorneys Benton Bodamer (Member & Practice Group Chair - Corporate, Private Equity, M&A, Columbus), Taylor MacDonald (Associate, Columbus), and Benjamin Sobczak (Member, Troy) was recently cited in a British Food Journal article on beer drinker perceptions of cannabis-infused beverages.
The British Food Journal article cited to “Cliffs Without Fences and Fences Without Cliffs: Exploring the Emerging Conflicts Between Quasi-Legal Intoxicating Hemp and Regulated State-Legal Cannabis,” Ohio State Legal Studies Research Paper, No. 855, Drug Enforcement and Policy Center. Bodamer, MacDonald, and Sobczak’s work discusses the complicated regulatory environment for federally compliant intoxicating hemp products, including the possible implications of forthcoming federal policy decisions, highlighting the interest groups lobbying for legislative action. The work argues that these new proposed regulations provide no real solution to the federal government’s decades-old inability to safely and predictably allow access to the cannabis plant with reasonable and logical safeguards.
