Tax resolution attorney John Willis, CEO and founder of IRSALLSTAR tells the tale of a legally sanctioned medical marijuana dispensary owner who ended up in prison just like a regular drug dealer because he didn’t file tax returns.

Fairhope, AL, October 16, 2018: Tax Attorney John Willis, CEO and founder of IRSALLSTAR.com, recently published a blog on his website entitled “High Or Stupid,” in which Mr. Willis urges anyone in the medical marijuana business to file their tax returns and pay their taxes.

Willis writes, “With the legalization of medical marijuana dispensaries in Florida in 2017 there is much to be learned from those in other states who’ve been at it for years. One such lesson comes as a “what not to do” account.”

According to Willis, “An owner of a medical marijuana business in Oregon failed to file tax returns from 2011 – 2014. The only question I have is, was he high? The guy had to be.”

He shares his source writing, “According to accountingtoday.com, ‘The medical marijuana dispensary owner-operator in Oregon was sentenced to seven months in prison last month, in what appears to be the first federal sentencing of a legal cannabis business owner for tax crimes. Price, a co-owner of Cannabliss dispensaries, pleaded guilty to willfully failing to file income tax returns in connection with his cannabis stores, and did not file individual tax returns from 2011 to 2014 for income received from the dispensaries’ operations — despite the advice of a number of CPAs who advised him during those years.’”
