Q: have lease agreement for weed cultivation license. Bureau of canna control said subletting is illegal Is contract void?
I was unable to move forward with business and now owner claims I still owe him for the remainder of the contract. Does he have any grounds to come after me or can I walk away?
A: Well, the first step is to have an attorney of your choice review the agreement, relevant facts and communications between the parties ... and then to schedule a free initial consultation ... let me know your thoughts ... thank you.
A: I agree with the advice already given about the importance of sitting down with a lawyer to review your agreement. The only additional point I would make is that current regulations governing licensed cannabis operations prohibit subletting. (Cal. Code Regs. Title 4, Section 15000.4; effective 9/27/2021).
