Florida-based BioTrackTHC filed a protest with Missouri marijuana regulators over a decision to award a medical cannabis licensing and seed-to-sale tracking contract to Metrc in the Show-Me State.

BioTrack alleges the scoring was tainted because Franwell, the maker of Metrc – which also is based in Florida – didn’t disclose fees to growers and other vendors.

The appeal seeks to void Metrc’s contract with Missouri and award it instead to BioTrack, the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reported.
