High court orders Ohio regulators to rule on marijuana cultivator Fire Rock s request to expand
Jeremy Nobile
The Ohio Supreme Court has ruled in favor of a small Akron marijuana cultivator that asked the court to spur state regulators to approve or deny an application submitted over a year ago to expand its grow facility.
In February 2020, Fire Rock Ltd. filed an application with the Ohio Department of Commerce to expand its Level II cultivation facility from approximately 3,000 square feet to 6,000 square feet. It sought the expansion on the basis that it is unable to produce enough product to meet customer demands at its current size.
Opinion: Ohio must help end stigma against migraine sufferers, specify cannabis for treatment Francois Cadiou, Guest columnist
For the nearly 39 million Americans who suffer from debilitating migraines, stigma is nothing new.
Despite the fact that they struggle with a chronic neurological disease that is the sixth-most disabling illness in the world and is more common than asthma, diabetes and epilepsy combined, migraine patients often are marginalized.
Even in Ohio, a forward-thinking state that has a medical cannabis program, migraine is not included in the Medical Marijuana Control Program’s qualifying conditions list despite strong evidence that cannabis is an effective migraine treatment. Ohio should explicitly allow medical cannabis to be prescribed to treat migraine.
