Missouri consumers file class-action lawsuit against Good Day Farm
Summary
A class-action lawsuit filed in Jackson County Circuit Court alleges that Good Day Farm, Missouri's largest dispensary chain, conspired to monopolize the recreational cannabis market. The plaintiff, Damon Toussaint Frost Jr., claims that the company and its affiliates have controlled approximately 25% of dispensary licenses, exceeding the Missouri Constitution's 10% cap. The lawsuit alleges that GDF circumvented this limit by arranging for investors to acquire licensed entities through limited liability companies. The complaint states that GDF employees were listed on paperwork for affiliated dispensaries. The company has denied the allegations, stating they are baseless and without merit. This is the second class-action lawsuit filed against the chain in April, with similar allegations of creating a 'cartel' and violating the state constitution.
