S 9924 New York Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Relates to enforcement actions by the office of cannabis management

This bill expands the enforcement powers of the Office of Cannabis Management to allow for the seizure of cannabis products and related items found in the possession of individuals suspected of violating cannabis laws. The key provision authorizes the office to conduct reasonable searches and confiscate such goods, including those in vehicles used for business, when there is probable cause of unlawful conduct. These actions are intended to be administrative measures designed to ensure consistent application of the regulatory scheme rather than criminal penalties. The changes apply immediately to the existing cannabis law framework.
