The Department of Justice issued an order on April 23, rescheduling state-licensed medical marijuana and Food & Drug Administration-approved cannabis products to Schedule III of the Controlled Substances Act (CSA). The order is also expected to jumpstart the stalled Drug Enforcement Administration rescheduling process for adult use marijuana, which currently remains in Schedule I.

A former FBI agent who led the investigation for more than two decades is now offering the first…

LONDON – Insurers in Britain that are not ready to implement tougher “value for money” rules on car and home policies could face disciplinary action, the Financial Conduct Authority said on Wednesday. The FCA found in May that loyal customers were not getting value for money, and that 6 million policyholders would have saved 1.2 billion pounds ($1.65 billion) if they had paid the average instead of high prices actually paid. It set out enhanced rules from October to ensure people renewing home and motor insurance did not pay more than new customers. They also made it simpler to stop…
