Episode Details

On our latest Trade to Black podcast, Josh Schiller, an experienced trial lawyer from Boies Schiller Flexner LLP, provides updates from last week's oral argument in the David Boies lawsuit, which challenges the federal government's outdated marijuana regulations. During the oral arguments at the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit, the plaintiffs argued that the 2005 Gonzales v. Raich decision is no longer applicable due to evolving state cannabis laws and public opinion. They highlighted the financial burdens imposed by federal regulations and the inconsistency between state legalization and federal prohibition. The DOJ defended its stance, emphasizing the impact of intrastate activities on interstate commerce and the need for consistent federal oversight. We'll dive into key questions such as: 1. How did the judges react to your argument that the Gonzales v. Raich decision is outdated? 2. What evidence was presented to show the economic impact of state-legal cannabis businesses? 3. How did the DOJ justify relying on the Commerce Clause despite evolving state laws? 4. What role did the Rohrabacher-Farr Amendment play in your arguments? #cannabis #cannabisindustry #marijuana #rescheduling #boieslawsuit #doj #supremecourt #trump Want to know more about Cannabis Reform? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=INIzh...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E4nl-...
