Curaleaf, an integrated cannabis producer based in Massachusetts, was slapped with a product liability lawsuit Wednesday in Oregon District Court over the labeling of its Select CBD drops. In Oregon, drops containing THC are not permitted to be sold without a warning label. THC is not fit for unintentional human consumption as it can impair a person's ability to drive a motor vehicle and cause unwanted anxiety, panic, and acute psychosis. The court case, brought by OlsenDaines on behalf of Jason Crawforth, alleges that drops ingested by the plaintiff contained the psychoactive compound THC without a warning label. Counsel have not yet appeared for the defendant. The case is 3:21-cv-01432, Crawforth v. Curaleaf, Inc.
