HEMP Hemp Inc (CE)

Marijuana, Inc. (PINKSHEETS: HEMP) announced today the retention of Eric P. Littman, an attorney licensed to practice law in the state of Florida, to represent Marijuana, Inc. Mr. Littman graduated Cum Laude from the University Of Miami School Of Law in 1979. Since then, he has engaged in the private practice of law, with a concentration in corporate securities law and reverse mergers. Mr. Littman specializes in representing small public companies whose common stock is listed for trading on the OTC Bulletin Board and the OTC Markets Pink Sheet. In that capacity, he assists companies with their SEC, FINRA and OTC Market filings and currently represents in excess of 10 companies whose stock is currently listed and trading.

"Mr. Littman's extensive and unique understanding of the legal nature of small public companies and medical cannabis law brings HEMP world class representation as we navigate the extensive growth of the industry and our company," stated Bruce Perlowin, CEO of Marijuana, Inc. "The rapid growth of the medical cannabis industry and widespread acceptance nationwide (see inset) has pushed us to increase the quality of our legal and overall staff to accommodate the quickly increasing market and public embracing of medical marijuana, recreational marijuana and industrial hemp."

"Support for legalizing marijuana has been increasing over the past several years from a low of 12% to an overwhelming 50% today -- the highest on record. Continued pressure by the majority of voters may well increase the overturning of the federal anti hemp and marijuana laws." Stated Eric Littman, "It is this sort of historic grassroots foothold that has me excited to bring my legal expertise to Marijuana, Inc."

Marijuana, Inc., while not involved in cultivating, transporting or marketing medical marijuana, creates infrastructure products for the growing medical cannabis industry and the increasing peripheral businesses created by emerging acceptance (Gallup Poll 10/17/11 showing 50% approval for legalizing marijuana use -- the highest in US history) as states adopt medical cannabis nationwide. Emphasis on infrastructure creation catapults HEMP.pk to the forefront of this multi-billion dollar industry.
