PA Cannabis Coalition, Aplt. v. 23rd Judicial Dist

Summary

The Supreme Court of Pennsylvania affirmed the Commonwealth Court’s dismissal of the Pennsylvania Cannabis Coalition’s petition for review, holding that the coalition lacks standing to challenge the 23rd Judicial District’s medical‑marijuana policy. The Court applied Pennsylvania’s associational standing test, finding the alleged financial harm to member dispensaries was too remote and speculative. Justice Donohue dissented, arguing the coalition satisfied the standing requirements and the case should be remanded.
