Alabama Always, a Montgomery-based company, has taken legal action against the Alabama Medical Cannabis Commission, alleging bias and unlawful conduct in the state’s medical cannabis licensing process. The company filed a petition seeking the disqualification of all current commissioners for showing bias against them and other applicants. In addition, a lawsuit was filed accusing the AMCC of violating the U.S. Constitution and Alabama law.
The lawsuit claims that the AMCC has consistently ignored due process and transparency, choosing delay and defiance instead. Alabama Always argues that the commission’s actions undermine the integrity of the entire process and calls for the appointment of a judge to make licensing decisions. The company asserts that they met all criteria for a license but were denied one unfairly.
Alabama Always is asking the court to halt any further licensing actions until a legal and impartial review can take place. The company aims to create a stable and legally sound process for patients to access medical cannabis products. With a history of missed deadlines, conflicts of interest, and legal challenges, the AMCC’s credibility is on the line as Alabama’s medical cannabis program faces a crisis of public trust. The court’s decision on the current legal challenges could be a turning point in ensuring a fair and transparent licensing process in the state.
