In addition to the meeting’s regularly scheduled agenda items, including planning for future CLE programs, and discussion of recent and pending legislation in the Garden State, the Banking Law Section meetings feature a Hot Topics discussion.  This month’s Hot Topics discussion focused on how federally-insured banks are to deal with marijuana related businesses, from front-line growers and sellers in states where marijuana is legal under state law, to companies that may provide services to marijuana businesses, to other types of businesses.  The Banking Law Section meeting was from 6:30pm-8:00pm at the New Jersey State Bar Association’s conference center in New Brunswick, NJ.
