Cannabis Rescheduling No Longer a Done Deal? – DEA Judge Cancels Hearings on Marijuana Until At Least May 2025

In a surprising turn of events, DEA Chief Administrative Law Judge John Mulrooney II announced the cancellation of the upcoming rescheduling hearings scheduled for January 21, 2025. The decision came after Village Farms International and Hemp for Victory filed a legal challenge against the DEA. Their motion alleged bias within the agency, claiming that there had been improper communications between DEA officials and anti-rescheduling advocates.
