Jordan Coombs pot lawsuit against LivWell is making headlines. Coombs who was given pot laced candy without his knowledge by LivWell is suing the company. Coombs claims that while visiting the Denver County Fair’s pot pavilion, the vendor lied to him and gave him candy bars that contained marijuana that made him very ill.
Jordan Coombs has filed a lawsuit against LivWell, a Colorado company that specializes in pot edibles.
The man said in the court documents that he toured the Denver County Fair on August 3rd, with his family and took a pack of Full Melt candy bars that were being handed out by LivWell.
Coombs who was fully aware that chocolate was being given by a vendor at the fair’s pot pavilion, made sure to ask several times if the candy was cannabis free.
The vendor reassured him that there was no pot in the sweets so he ate them. Moments later Mr Coombs felt very ill and started vomiting and hallucinating.
The man stated that he became briefly blind and felt like he was having a heart attack.
His wife drove him to a nearby hospital, where doctors revealed that he was overdosing on THC (Tetrahydrocannabinol is the main chemical substance found in cannabis plants.)
The lawyer representing Coombs, Corey T. Zurbuch has filed a class action lawsuit against the company saying that they should pay his client and any other person who comes forward a reasonable amount of money for their pain and injuries.
Zurbuch is hoping to represent Kari Mitchell and Richard Jones who also attended the fair and said they were given chocolate/marijuana, which they consumed, fell sick and needed to be hospitalized.
Both Mitchell and Jones stated that the vendor lied to them by saying the products contained no drugs.
The company, which has paid the medical bills of the three people who accidentally consumed their snacks, has issued a statement saying that they are investigating the matter.
