Congratulations to Santa Fe partners, Caren Friedman, Justin Kaufman, and Rosalind Bienvenu, who successfully convinced the New Mexico Court of Appeals to affirm a judgment rejecting contract and fraud claims against state licensed medical cannabis growers, Ken and Irene Livingston, the founders of Healthy Education Society. The Livingstons prevailed at trial, and on appeal, the judgment was affirmed in its entirety based on the failure to prove damages. You can read the memorandum opinion in Livingston Land, LLC v. Brooker, A-1-CA-38948 (N.M. App. Feb. 15, 2023), here.
