Oklahoma judge rules in favor of cannabis farm, lifts suspension

PRYOR, Okla. (KOKH) — A judge has ruled in favor of one of Oklahoma’s largest outdoor cannabis farms after the grow had its license suspended.

On Monday, an administrative law judge for the Oklahoma Medical Marijuana Authority lifted an emergency order that had shut down Cedric Gardens Inc. since late February.

The ruling restores the licensed commercial grower’s ability to operate and lifted the Emergency Order of Summary Suspension.

OMMA issued the emergency order on Feb. 24, 2026, alleging that 348 totes and bags containing 1,923 pounds of flower and 5,742 pounds of shake were “untagged” and “unreconcilable.”

Cedric Gardens challenged that claim and argued its practices complied with OMMA rules and did not pose a public safety risk.

“We proved that there was no public safety threat, and that Cedric Gardens’ business practices were approved by OMMA every year without ever citing or disciplining the business,” said Dana L. Kurtz of Wirth Law Office, who represents Cedric Gardens. “We also established that all of the product was completely reconcilable in Metrc, which OMMA did not even bother to check before suspending the license without any evidence.”

Susan Brosky, a co-owner of Cedric Gardens, said the company was relieved by the judge’s decision.

“We are elated that the ALJ found that OMMA’s emergency summary suspension should be lifted,” Brosky said. “We have never provided product to the public that posed a public safety risk, all of our product is safe!”
