Grant Wynne, son of late state Supreme Court Justice Robin Wynne, has asked state regulators for approval to purchase a medical marijuana dispensary in El Dorado.
The Arkansas Medical Marijuana Commission is set to consider Wynne’s request to buy Zen Leaf dispensary at its meeting on Dec. 12.
The dispensary is owned by Kathryn Crimmins of Rogers and Stephen Dorf of Illinois. Commission approval is required for changes of ownership at the state’s medical marijuana businesses.
Robin Wynne served on the state Supreme Court from 2015 until his death last year.
In other business, the commission will consider the Trulove family’s plans to extend its reach in the Arkansas medical marijuana world with the purchase of a second cultivation facility.
Jessica Trulove will ask the commission next week for approval to become the sole owner of Revolution Cannabis, a medical marijuana cultivator in Newport. The business is currently owned by Tamika Edwards and Dustin Shroyer.
In October, the commission approved Trulove’s purchase of a Clarksville dispensary, Enlightened Cannabis for People. Trulove had previously submitted a request to purchase the Newport cultivation facility at the October meeting, but she withdrew the request before the meeting.
Jessica Trulove is the wife of Matt Trulove, who owns 20% of Osage Creek Cultivation in Berryville. Matt Trulove’s mother, Mary Trulove, owns 55% of Osage Creek Cultivation and other family members own the rest. Jay Trulove, Jessica Trulove’s father-in-law, is the sole owner of Osage Creek Dispensary in Eureka Springs.
State law allows for individuals to own an interest in one dispensary and one cultivation facility. It does not place restrictions on the ownership interests of other family members.
