Connecticut Attorney General William Tong has filed lawsuits against seven local cannabis businesses for violating the state's Unfair Trade Practices Act. The businesses facing lawsuits are three wholesalers and four retailers. They have been accused of selling illegal high-THC cannabis that has not undergone the state's rigorous testing standards or been properly labelled. Some of the products are said to have packaging designed to appeal to children. Each violation could carry a penalty of up to $5,000. Tong said the businesses are not licensed to sell cannabis products and urged adults to purchase marijuana from the regulated market rather than from unlicensed sources, which he said were often "untested and unsafe, especially if consumed by children". In a separate move, Tong has sent a cease-and-desist letter to HighBazaar, which has been hosting illegal cannabis "gifting parties" accessible to under-21s.
