An arbitration award of greater than $300,000 to hashish wholesaler C4 Distribution affirmed the corporate’s beliefs {that a} California metropolis had wrongly enforced a contract—and that, regardless of opposing counsel’s claims, a “scrivener’s error” was to not blame.
California cooperative RD Lynwood, represented by Venable, and town of Lynwood, California, sued C4 in November 2020, alleging the hashish firm owed greater than $40,000 in unpaid metropolis taxes. Nonetheless, JAMS arbitrator Stephen J. Sundvold discovered the plaintiffs’ declare was primarily based on a misinterpretation of a growth settlement between the events.
