Judge signs Writ of Mandamus to keep medical cannabis reciprocity program in accordance with the law
(Santa Fe) – Ultra Health, New Mexico’s #1 Cannabis Company, successfully filed a Writ of Mandamus against the New Mexico Department of Health (NMDOH) asking the court to rescind an NMDOH mandate that added additional requirements for reciprocal patients to participate in the New Mexico Medical Cannabis Program.
Santa Fe District Court Judge Matthew Wilson prepared the Writ and signed it on October 13, 2020, invalidating the NMDOH mandate and Emergency Rule that attempted to disallow qualified reciprocal participants from accessing New Mexico’s Medical Cannabis Program.
