"THC you at trial: Wrongful termination claim over CBD oil use avoids dismissal," HRLaws.com

By Jason A. Culotta

Article

January 2023

Jason Culotta, a partner in the Labor & Employment Practice Group of the New Orleans office, published the article “THC you at trial: Wrongful termination claim over CBD oil use avoids dismissal” on HRLaws.com. He provides a rundown of a recent opinion by the US District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana which ruled that a jury was needed to decide a case after an employer terminated a disabled employee for failing a drug test because of her lawful CBD oil use and what it means for employers dealing with medicinal marijuana-related accommodations.
