Ian Stewart (Partner-Los Angeles) and Otis Felder (Of Counsel-Los Angeles) have authored an article, “Gram Shop Liability for On-Site Cannabis Consumption in California,” published in the March 1, 2017, issue of Cannabis Law Journal. Ian and Otis point out that those considering the potential development of on-site cannabis use should not only inquire as to insurance coverage but also seriously consider, as those serving alcohol have done, the development of standards and procedures involving consumption to avoid litigation, such as limiting on-site consumption to one gram per customer, obtaining agreement from on-site consumers to use car/taxi companies or public transportation as a condition of sale, and posting prominent warnings about potential impairment.
