State News Colorado Denver-based Standing Akimbo is asking the full 10th Circuit of Appeals to hear a case arguing to keep the Internal Revenue Service from obtaining certain company financial information from the Colorado Department of Revenue. Standing Akimbo was denied last year in its bid to have its case heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. The company's appeals request referred to comments made by U.S. Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas, who said in June 2021 that federal marijuana prohibition might not be " necessary or proper, " given how many states have enacted their own legalization laws. 22 April 2022 | MJBizMagazine
