Ascend Wellness (OTC: AAWH) has pulled off the gloves in its latest complaint against MedMen (OTC: MMNFF) calling the company, broken and mismanaged and saying that it has repeatedly reneged on its promises to its employees, suppliers, shareholders, medical marijuana patients, regulators. MedMen had agreed to sell its New York assets to Ascend, but the deal was contingent upon New York State giving approval to the deal. MedMen has since refused to close the deal saying the state hadn’t really given final approval and accusing the state and Ascend of influence peddling. Ascend went on to say that MedMen just had buyer’s remorse and wants more money. The complaint also calls MedMen a pariah in the cannabis industry.
