The former owners of Oregon-based Cura Cannabis, one of the subsidiaries now owned by Massachusetts-based multistate operator Curaleaf, agreed this week to pay more than $500,000 to settle a class action lawsuit over mislabeled marijuana vape cartridges.

According to The Oregonian, the settlement stems from a case last year in which state regulators concluded that the Portland company had mislabeled 186,000 vape cartridges under its Select brand as 100% marijuana when in fact employees had cut the cannabis oil with additives.

The business has already paid $110,000 to the state in penalties for the incident.

The Oregonian said an attorney for Cura did not respond to a request for comment Friday.
