Springfield News-Leader
The majority of Missouri s medical marijuana businesses recently have been granted extensions after failing to meet a one-year operating deadline, state authorities told the News-Leader this week.
That means roughly 260 out of 370 licensed marijuana companies won t have to be open for business until as late as September, rather than one year from the time they were licensed as required under state regulations, authorities said. Marijuana program documents provided to the News-Leader in early January and early February show that roughly 20 more cannabis companies have also asked for deadline extensions.
The question of whether a company gets an extension carries high stakes because, under state rules authorized by the constitution, a marijuana venture s license or certification may be revoked if a licensed facility has not passed a commencement inspection within one (1) year.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) Attorneys who represent medical marijuana clients say they are concerned about possible discipline under a directive issued by the state Supreme Court in June.
The directive says attorneys cannot participate in, or advise clients on participating in, anything that is illegal under federal law, even if they are legal under state law.
Medical marijuana is illegal under federal law but legal in Missouri.
Dan Viets, who represents medical marijuana industry clients, says he asked the Supreme Court Advisory Committee for clarity on the issue.
Missouri Supreme Court spokeswoman Beth Riggert said it would be inappropriate for the the court to comment on the order.
