I think you missed an important point of the article. This is stated Nick is part of 3 people suing. They just mentioned in the second paragraph Sun Pacific is being sued as well which would be interesting to find out.
The lawsuit, filed by Josh Bauchner of Ansell Grimm & Aaron on behalf of Joseph Wolfe, Ronald Romano, Nicholas Campanella and their joint venture, Fresh Harvest Group, LLC, alleges the DeCotiis law firm, DeCotiis attorneys Joseph DeCotiis and Arlene Perez, and Verano and its principals Sam Dorf and George Archos reneged on a deal to obtain a medical cannabis license during the 2018 Request for Application round. The trio, which also accused the law firm of legal malpractice, is seeking damages, attorneys’ fees and costs of the suit.
Wolfe, of Wyckoff, is a longtime friend of DeCotiis. Romano is the president of Performance Supply, which was recently sued by manufacturer 3M in federal district court for an alleged scam to sell fake N95 masks to New York City at 500-600% mark up. Campanella, who is the CEO of Sun Pacific Holding Corp, is facing a shareholder lawsuit accusing him and Sun Pacific’s CFO and general counsel of defrauding investors.
