LOS ANGELES (CNS) - A judge today dismissed all civil claims filed against a real estate company by the City Attorney s Office in a lawsuit alleging a South Los Angeles commercial cannabis business operated illegally and sold pot found to contain a dangerous pesticide.
Lawyers for Daum Commercial Real Estate had filed a motion arguing the part of the case against their clients should be dismissed because they did not own or operate a cannabis business and were not the owner or lessor of property engaged in a such an enterprise. They maintained their clients served as brokers in the lease of the property and did not lease or rent any property of their own.
