Assembly Bill

No. 1826

LEGISLATIVE COUNSEL'S DIGEST

AB 1826, as amended, Lackey. Cannabis: recall, embargo, and destruction of cannabis and cannabis products.

Existing law, the Medicinal and Adult-Use Cannabis Regulation and Safety Act (MAUCRSA), governs the licensure and regulation of commercial cannabis activities. MAUCRSA prohibits engaging in certain commercial activities with cannabis or a cannabis product that is misbranded or adulterated. Among the conditions for which cannabis or a cannabis product is deemed misbranded, MAUCRSA includes packaging or labeling that does not conform to specified requirements. Among the conditions for which cannabis or a cannabis product is deemed adulterated, MAUCRSA includes instances in which concentrations differ from, or its purity or quality is below, that which it is represented to possess.

This bill would revise the standards for determining whether cannabis or a cannabis product has been misbranded or adulterated by eliminating certain conditions, including the conditions described above.

MAUCRSA establishes the Department of Cannabis Control for the administration and enforcement of its provisions. Existing law gives the department various enforcement powers and duties related to the recall, embargo, seizure, and destruction of cannabis and cannabis products that have been deemed misbranded or adulterated, or whose sale would otherwise be in violation of MAUCRSA. When the department has evidence that cannabis or a cannabis product has been adulterated or misbranded or when the department issues an embargo, existing law requires the department to notify the licensee.

This bill would require those notifications to include certain documentation supporting the finding of adulteration or misbranding, or the finding of probable cause to issue an embargo, as specified.

Existing law authorizes a licensee to conduct a voluntary recall of the affected cannabis or cannabis product and to remediate the cannabis or cannabis product, if approved by the department, otherwise, existing law requires the licensee to destroy the affected cannabis or cannabis product under the supervision of the department.

This bill would authorize, rather than require, the licensee to destroy the affected cannabis or cannabis product under those circumstances. The bill would require the department, prior to a voluntary recall by the licensee, to provide the licensee with an opportunity for an informal conference on why the cannabis or cannabis product is considered adulterated or misbranded. The bill would prohibit the department from permitting destruction of the product until either the informal conference process has concluded or the licensee has declined to participate in the informal conference.

Existing law authorizes the department to issue a mandatory recall if the cannabis or cannabis product creates or poses an immediate and serious threat to human life or health, as specified. Existing law requires the department to provide an opportunity for an informal proceeding on the recall within 5 days, as specified.

This bill would require the department to provide the evidence supporting the mandatory recall simultaneously with the issuance of the order. The bill would require the department to provide the licensee with an opportunity for an informal conference on the recall, instead of an informal proceeding, as specified. The bill would prohibit the department from requiring destruction of cannabis or cannabis product prior to the conclusion of either the informal conference process or the licensee’s decision not to participate in the informal conference.

Existing law requires the department to affix an embargo tag or other appropriate marking to cannabis or cannabis product that the department finds or has probable cause to believe is in violation of MAUCRSA, as specified. Existing law prohibits the embargoed cannabis or cannabis product from being removed or disposed of by sale or otherwise until the department or a court gives permission. Existing law authorizes the licensee to request that the department remove the tag or other marking to permit correction if the adulteration or misbranding can be corrected by proper labeling or additional processing, and other requirements are met. Existing law authorizes the department to remove the tag or other marking if it finds that the embargoed cannabis or cannabis product is not in violation of MAUCRSA, as specified.

This bill would require the department to provide the licensee with an opportunity for an informal conference on an embargo, as specified, and would require the department to make a final determination on the embargo order within 15 calendar days from the date of the informal conference. The bill would require the department to remove the embargo tag or other marking within 5 calendar days of finding that cannabis or a cannabis product is not in violation of MAUCRSA, as specified.

Existing law authorizes the department to condemn cannabis or a cannabis product that is embargoed. Existing law also authorizes the licensee or product owner of embargoed cannabis or cannabis product to destroy or remediate the cannabis or cannabis product pursuant to a corrective action plan approved by the department and under the supervision of the department.

This bill would authorize the department to initiate condemnation proceedings, as provided, if the department does not approve a corrective action plan or does not receive a response from the licensee with 7 days of the notice of the embargo.

This bill would prohibit the department from requiring a licensee to conduct a voluntary recall, sign a waiver of liability, or waive any right to an informal meeting or an administrative or judicial hearing or appeal as a condition of the department taking certain actions. Those actions include approving a voluntary recall, authorizing remediation, supervising the destruction of the cannabis or cannabis product, removing an embargo tag, approving a corrective plan, and permitting the destruction of product. The bill would make failure to comply with a condemnation order a separate cause for disciplinary action against a licensee.

Existing law authorizes the department to issue a citation to a licensee or unlicensed person for any act or omission that violates or has violated any provision of MAUCRSA and requires the citation to include a provision that notifies the licensee or person that a hearing may be requested to contest the finding of a violation. Existing law requires the hearing to be conducted pursuant to specified provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act that govern formal hearings.

This bill would instead require the citation to include a provision that notifies the licensee that a hearing or informal conference, or both, may be requested to contest the violation, as specified. The bill would require the informal hearing to be conducted pursuant to different provisions of the Administrative Procedure Act, other than the provisions governing formal hearings, and would set forth additional specific procedures for the informal conference. The bill would require a citation issued under these provisions to be issued within 3 years after the performance of the act or omission that violates MAUCRSA.

The people of the State of California do enact as follows:

SECTION 1.

Section 26031.5 of the Business and Professions Code is amended to read:

26031.5.

(a) (1) The department may issue a citation to a licensee or unlicensed person for any act or omission that violates or has violated any provision of this division or any regulation adopted pursuant to this division. The department shall issue the citation in writing. The citation shall describe with particularity the legal and factual basis of the citation, and it shall also include the notification described in subdivision (c). The department may include in each citation an order of abatement and fix a reasonable time for abatement of the violation. The department may, as part of each citation, assess an administrative fine not to exceed five thousand dollars ($5,000) per violation by a licensee and thirty thousand dollars ($30,000) per violation by an unlicensed person. Each day of violation shall constitute a separate violation.

(2) In assessing a fine, the department shall give due consideration to the appropriateness of the amount of the fine with respect to factors the department determines to be relevant, including the following:

(A) The gravity of the violation by the licensee or person.

(B) The good faith of the licensee or person.

(C) The history of previous violations.

(b) The sanctions authorized under this section shall be separate from, and in addition to, all other administrative, civil, or criminal remedies.

(c) A citation issued pursuant to this section shall include a provision that notifies the licensee that a hearing or informal conference, or both, may be requested to contest the finding of a violation by submitting a written request within 30 days from service of the citation.

(1) (A) A hearing shall be held pursuant to the Administrative Procedure Act (Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code).

(B) An informal conference shall be held in accordance with the provisions of Chapter 4.5 (commencing with Section 11400) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code, the requirements contained in paragraph (2), and the regulations of the department.

(C) If the licensee fails to submit a written request for a hearing or an informal conference within 30 days from the date of service of the citation, the right to a hearing or an informal conference is waived and the citation shall be deemed a final order of the department and is not subject to review by any court.

(2) The department shall, within 15 calendar days after receipt of the written request for an informal conference, hold an informal conference with the licensee or their legal counsel or authorized representative, or any combination of those persons.

(A) At the informal conference, the licensee, or their legal counsel or authorized representative, shall be allowed the opportunity to meet with a representative of the department who has knowledge of the citation. The department representative shall describe the factual and legal basis for the citation, if requested. The licensee, or their legal counsel or authorized representative, shall be allowed to present evidence and argument as to why the citation should be modified or dismissed.

(B) After the informal conference, the department shall affirm, modify, or dismiss the citation, including any fines levied or orders of abatement issued. The department shall notify the licensee of its decision and the reasoning supporting the decision via written notification, which shall be sent to the licensee and their legal counsel or authorized representative, if any, by electronic means or by mail to the premises address, or by both electronic means and by mail, within 15 calendar days after the date of the informal conference. The decision shall be deemed to be a final order with regard to the citation issued, including the levied fine or the order of abatement, if any.

(C) If the citation is dismissed, any request for a hearing shall be deemed withdrawn. If the citation is affirmed, the licensee may either withdraw the request for a hearing or proceed with the administrative hearing process.

(D) If the citation, including any fines levied or orders of abatement issued, is modified, the citation originally issued shall be considered withdrawn and a new citation issued. If a hearing is requested for the subsequent citation, it shall be requested within 30 calendar days after issuance of the citation.

(d) After the exhaustion of the administrative and judicial review procedures, the department may apply to the appropriate superior court for a judgment in the amount of the administrative fine and an order compelling the cited person to comply with the order of the department. The application, which shall include a certified copy of the final order of the department, shall constitute a sufficient showing to warrant the issuance of the judgment and order.

(e) The department may recover from the licensee or person who was the subject of the citation costs of investigation and enforcement, which may include reasonable attorney’s fees for the services rendered. If the department recovers costs from a licensee, the department shall recover the costs pursuant to Section 26031.1.

(f) Fines shall be paid within 30 days of service of a citation by the department. Failure to pay a fine assessed pursuant to this section within 30 days of the date of service of the citation, unless the citation is being appealed, shall constitute a separate violation under this division subject to additional action by the department. The department shall not renew or grant a license to a person who was the subject of the fine until that person pays the fine.

(g) All moneys collected pursuant to this section associated with the recovery of investigation and enforcement costs shall be deposited into the Cannabis Control Fund. Any administrative fine amount shall be deposited directly into the Cannabis Fines and Penalties Account and shall be distributed pursuant to subdivision (d) of Section 26210.

(h) A citation issued by the department under this section shall be issued within three years after the performance of the act or omission that violates this division or any regulation adopted pursuant to this division.

A violation of this subdivision is subject to a citation and fine of not more than ten thousand dollars ($10,000).

(2) Notwithstanding paragraph (1), a licensed cultivator may request permission for the continued cultivation or harvesting of the cannabis subject to embargo. The department may authorize, and may impose conditions on, the continued cultivation or harvesting of the cannabis subject to embargo.

(c) If the adulteration or misbranding can be corrected by proper labeling or additional processing of the cannabis or cannabis product and all of the provisions of this division can be complied with, the licensee may request that the department remove the tag or other marking to permit correction. If, under the supervision of the department, the adulteration or misbranding has been corrected, the department may remove the tag or other marking. Cannabis and cannabis products found at an unlicensed location, or cultivated, processed, produced, or manufactured at an unlicensed location, or derived from an unlicensed source, shall not be corrected and shall be destroyed.

(d) (1) For any cannabis or a cannabis product that is embargoed, the department shall provide the licensee with an opportunity for an informal conference on the matter within 15 calendar days of the delivery of the notification required by paragraph (2) of subdivision (a). The informal conference shall include department personnel with knowledge of the matter and shall provide the licensee with an opportunity to present information and argument as to why the cannabis or cannabis product is not adulterated or misbranded, and is not otherwise in violation of this division.

(2) The department shall, within 15 calendar days from the date of the informal conference, make a final determination on whether or not the cannabis or cannabis product is adulterated or misbranded, or the sale of the cannabis or cannabis product would be in violation of this division.

If destroyed, the cannabis or cannabis product shall be destroyed at the expense of the licensee or product owner.

(f) (1) (A) The department may condemn cannabis or a cannabis product under the provisions of this section.

(B) If the department does not approve the corrective action plan, or the department does not receive a response from the licensee within seven calendar days after providing the notice described in paragraph (1) of subdivision (a), the department may initiate condemnation proceedings in accordance with the provisions of this section.

(C) A petition for condemnation shall be subject to appropriate notice to, and the opportunity for a hearing with regard to, the person or licensee affected in accordance with Chapter 5 (commencing with Section 11500) of Part 1 of Division 3 of Title 2 of the Government Code.

(i) For cultivation licensees, the petition for condemnation shall be filed and served no later than 15 days after the department’s decision to deny the corrective action plan or, if the department does not receive a response from the licensee within 7 calendar days of the notice of the embargo, within 15 days from the expiration of that time period, whichever is later. The cultivation licensee shall be given at least 15 days’ notice of the hearing on the petition for a condemnation order, and an expedited hearing shall be scheduled. The notice shall include documents submitted in support of the petition.

(ii) Manufacturer and retailer licensees are not entitled to an expedited hearing process for a petition for condemnation.

(2) A decision on the petition shall be rendered no later than 10 days after submission of the matter.

(3) Notwithstanding Section 11502 of the Government Code, the department or an administrative law judge sitting alone may, upon petition, issue an order condemning cannabis or cannabis products. The department may, in its sole discretion, delegate the hearing to an administrative law judge in the Office of Administrative Hearings. If the department hears the noticed petition itself, an administrative law judge shall preside at the hearing, rule on the admission and exclusion of evidence, and advise the department on matters of law. The department shall exercise all other powers relating to the conduct of the hearing but may delegate any or all of them to the administrative law judge. When the petition has been delegated to an administrative law judge, the administrative law judge shall sit alone and exercise all of the powers of the department relating to the conduct of the hearing. A decision issued by an administrative law judge sitting alone shall be final when it is filed with the department. The decision of the administrative law judge sitting alone on the petition for a condemnation order is final, subject only to review in accordance with subdivision (h).

(4) Upon a finding by the department or an administrative law judge pursuant to paragraph (3) that the cannabis or cannabis product is adulterated or misbranded, or that its sale is otherwise in violation of this division, the department or the administrative law judge may direct the cannabis or cannabis product to be destroyed at the expense of the licensee and under the supervision of the department. The licensee shall pay fees and reasonable costs, including the costs of storage, testing, and supervision, incurred by the department in investigating and prosecuting the action taken pursuant to this section.

(5) Upon a finding by the department or an administrative law judge pursuant to paragraph (3) that the adulteration or misbranding can be corrected by proper labeling or additional processing of the cannabis or cannabis product and that all provisions of this division can be complied with, the department or the administrative law judge may direct the cannabis or cannabis products to be brought into compliance under the department’s supervision. The licensee shall pay fees and reasonable costs, including the costs of storage, testing, and supervision, incurred by the department in investigating and prosecuting the action. After the costs, fees, and expenses have been paid, the department may release the embargo and remove the tag or other marking and supervise the corrective action.

(g) (1) The department shall not require a licensee to sign a waiver of liability, or to waive any right to an informal meeting or an administrative or judicial hearing or appeal, as a condition of removing an embargo tag, approving a corrective action plan, or permitting the destruction of product.

(2) A waiver of liability or appeal rights shall only be valid if the licensee agrees to a voluntary condemnation and destruction of the cannabis or cannabis products or if the waiver is executed following the conclusion of a condemnation proceeding pursuant to this section or civil litigation regarding the matter.

(3) Failure to comply with a condemnation order shall constitute a separate cause for disciplinary action against a licensee. Violation of the condemnation order is established upon proof that the licensee was on notice of the condemnation order and its terms, and that the order was in effect at the time of the violation.

(h) Condemnation orders shall be subject to review by the Cannabis Control Appeals Panel pursuant to Section 26043. The review of a condemnation order shall be limited to a determination of whether the department abused its discretion in the issuance of the condemnation order. Abuse of discretion is established if the respondent department has not proceeded in the manner required by law, or if the panel determines that the condemnation order is not supported by substantial evidence in light of the whole record.
