The Supreme Court May Decide If Cannabis-Related Residency Requirements Are Unconstitutional (opens the original)
Read excerpt
On September 10th, a Michigan man asked the U.S. Supreme Court to resolve a circuit split on whether states can discriminate against non-residents in their cannabis licensing programs. This is a fascinating legal question we’ve been mulling on the blog since at least 2015. It’s pure law, and it warrants final resolution. The petitioning Michigander, Kenneth Gay, and his company, Peridot Tree, were denied access to Washington State’s cannabis program, second oldest in the country. Peridot was als
Oregon Cannabis Roundup: Fall 2026 (opens the original)
Read excerpt
It’s been a while since we wrote a round-up post on Oregon cannabis. Here are some items of note, as we head into the fall. Gather ‘round! On August 19th, the Oregon Capital Chronicle ran an article featuring a renewed push by Sen. Lisa Reynolds (D-Portland) to cap individual edibles at 10 milligrams of THC. This would be a reprisal of failed Senate Bill 1548, which we covered in February at the start of the 2026 legislative session. SB 1548A passed the Oregon Senate, but died in House committee
Buying A Business In The U.S., Part 4: Letters Of Intent (LOIs) (opens the original)
Read excerpt
In business purchase negotiations, parties often execute an early‑stage document called a letter of intent (“LOI”). You may also see it called a term sheet or even a memorandum of understanding (“MOU”). The label matters less than the document’s language and the parties’ objective intent. An LOI, term sheet, or MOU can be binding, nonbinding, or partly binding, depending on how it is written and the law that governs it. LOIs show up in most business acquisitions (and commercial real estate plays
Buying A Business In The U.S., Part 3: Nondisclosure Agreements (opens the original)
Read excerpt
I recently wrote about how to find businesses for sale, and how to price them. Today I’ll discuss the very first contract typically signed by a buyer and seller in the life cycle of a small or closely-held business acquisition: the non-disclosure agreement (NDA). In nearly all deals outside of the straight “investment” or VC context, the seller requires an NDA. The buyer may also need confidentiality protections—especially if they will need to make sensitive financial disclosures, share strategi
Buying A Business In The U.S., Part 2: How To Price Them (opens the original)
Read excerpt
“Price is what you pay. Value is what you get.” Warren Buffett said that. Buffett was talking about public companies, of course, but his maxim applies equally to purchases of small and closely-held business. Generally speaking, the lower the price, the better the value—if a buyer does their diligence, and assuming no fraud. At its core, a business’s valuation is simply an informed estimate of what a company should sell for. It’s not a single magic number, though. Instead, it’s a blend of differe
