McDaniel was involved in approving retail licenses and overseeing the agency assisting licensees with locating storefronts, which some viewed as a conflict of interest. The OCM and the Cannabis Control Board (CCB) face a lawsuit from the Coalition for Access to Regulated and Safe Cannabis (CARSC), which includes Acreage Holdings, Curaleaf Holdings, Green Thumb Industries, and PharmaCann.
