		order Order on Motion for Preliminary Injunction Order on Motion to Dismiss/Lack of Jurisdiction Thu 02/06 3:43 PM TEXT ORDER: Before the Court is Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint (ECF No.13 ) and Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction (ECF No.9 ). The Court has also received and reviewed Plaintiff's Opposition to Motion to Dismiss (ECF No.17 ), Defendants' Reply in Support of Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint (ECF No.20 ), Defendants' Objection to Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction (ECF No.14 ), and Plaintiff's Reply in Support of Motion for Preliminary Injunction (ECF No.16 ). The Court has considered the arguments put forth by both parties as well as the case law relevant thereto. The Court concludes the Plaintiff's claims are not ripe for judicial review. See Ernst & Young v. Depositors Economic Protection Corp. , 45 F.3d 530, 535-37 (1st Cir. 1995); McInnis-Misenor v. Me. Med. Ctr. , 319 F.3d 63, 70 (1st Cir. 2003); see also Operation Clean Govt v. Rhode Island Ethics Comm'n , 315 F. Supp. 2d 187, 195-96 (D.R.I. 2004). The Cannabis Control Commission has yet to promulgate rules and regulations pertaining to retail cannabis business licenses. This Court cannot and will not speculate as to when the proposed rules and regulations will be promulgated or when the application period for retail cannabis licenses will open. Defendants' Motion to Dismiss Plaintiff's Complaint (ECF No.13 ) is GRANTED. Plaintiff's Complaint is dismissed without prejudice. Plaintiff's Motion for Preliminary Injunction (ECF No.9 ) is DENIED as moot. So Ordered by District Judge Melissa R. DuBose on 2/6/2025. (Urizandi, Nissheneyra) Related: [-]
