NY Judge Fines Unlicensed Cannabis Shop Owner $15 Million

David Tulley penalized for operating without approval and allegedly selling to minors despite repeated warnings.

Tulley fined 90% of gross sales from February 2022 to May 2023 and $10,000 daily for unlicensed operations.
His shops, 'I'm Stuck' and 'Weed Warehouse,' were shut down in July 2023 by state officials.
Promotions included an Easter egg hunt where eggs could be redeemed for cannabis products.
Tulley plans to appeal the fine and run for governor to change licensing laws.
New York faces challenges with unlicensed cannabis retailers since legal sales began in late 2022.
