Working the legal case is Texas cannabis attorney David Sergi, one of the lawyers who was able to halt the statewide ban on hemp-derived THCs. He said the shops are more than willing to share all records required by state and federal law, but the DEA’s subpoena goes beyond its duties and authorities and is a violation of the Fourth and Fifth Amendments to the U.S. Constitution.
“These Allen-based businesses operate legally and each day follow all laws and regulations,” Sergi said in a written statement. He added that the shops are grateful that Federal Judge Amos Mazzant halted the subpoena."They are committed to the community and will continue to operate their business to the highest legal and moral standards," he wrote.
These products are sold at the Allen shops and, yes, they can feel every bit as powerful as marijuana can. But Sergi said each business maintains certificates of analysis for all their products to show that they meet legal requirements., Sergi said he’s not sure what’s going on between the DEA and Allen hemp shops. “The DEA was very ham-fisted, and instead of having any individualized suspicion, just tried to vacuum all the financial information,” Sergi said.
