GAGE GREEN GROUP

LAW

Protecting the integrity of cannabis genetics, intellectual property, and the communities that built them.

01

Every Fact Is Sourced

No allegation exists without a primary source — a verified email, a filed document, a public record, or a timestamped communication.

02

Every Filing Is Audited

A 100-point audit standard governs every document before it leaves this office. Six pillars: authority, fact integrity, equity, document perfection, procedural compliance, and strategic excellence.

03

The Record Speaks

This is not a campaign of accusation. It is a practice of documentation. The record is the argument.

THE MISSION

Gage Green Group was founded in 2009 as a cannabis genetics collective dedicated to preserving rare cultivars, advancing breeding science, and supporting the communities that made cannabis culture possible.

Over the past decade, corporate interests have systematically appropriated independent cannabis brands, genetics, and intellectual property — often without compensation, credit, or consent. GGG's name, cultivars, and brand identity have been among the targets.

This initiative exists to document the truth, pursue accountability through lawful process, and ensure that the people who built this culture are not erased from it.

TIMELINE

Seventeen years of building, preserving, and defending.

2008

The Beginning

Michael Jie-Shen Fang and Jeff Selsor begin collaborating on cannabis genetics in California. The name 'Gage' originates from Jeff's side project. Michael brings the breeding science.

2009

Gage Green Group Founded

GGG is formally established as a cannabis genetics collective. The mission: preserve rare cultivars, advance breeding science, and serve the community that built cannabis culture. The Gage name enters cannabis commerce.

2010

First Public Offering of Cookies Genetics

GGG publicly markets cannabis genetics identified as 'Cookies' (OG KB Cookies) on Instagram — predating any known commercial branding of the term in cannabis. The CPK lineage from St. George of Mendocino is the source.

2011

216+ Cultivars Documented

GGG's cultivar library grows to over 216 documented varieties. Cherry Pie Kush, Grateful Breath, Highschool Sweetheart, and dozens more. The CPK lineage becomes foundational genetics adopted across the entire industry.

2012-2016

Industry Recognition

GGG becomes one of the most respected names in cannabis genetics worldwide. Festival appearances, community education, and a growing seed bank operation. Michael is outspoken about genetics provenance and breeder rights.

2017 MAY

Seed Bank Raided

Law enforcement raids GGG's Michigan facility. 555 messages from Kevin Pattah during the raid period — the most active contact. Brandon 'Junior' Binno appears immediately after as an embedded contact. The genetics library survives.

2018

The $15M Offer

Kevin Pattah offers $15 million for the Gage brand — without Michael. Michael refuses. Within months, a Michigan entity called 'Gage Cannabis Co.' begins operations using GGG's name. 30+ Chaldean investors back the new entity.

2018 OCT

Brand Appropriation Begins

Radicle Cannabis Holdings Inc. creates 'Gage Cannabis Co.' in Michigan. The name GGG has used since 2009 is now being commercially exploited by a corporate entity with no connection to the original genetics program.

2019 MAR

The $10M Offer

Pattah offers $10 million via iMessage. Michael refuses again. Six months later, Wolverine Partners Corp purchases the 'Gage' brand for $250,000 — a 98% discount from what Pattah offered. The brand is worth far more than what was paid.

2019 SEP

Corporate Capture

Bruce Linton arrives as Executive Chairman. The entity rebrands to 'Gage Growth Corp.' Trademark opposition is filed against GGG at the USPTO — the people using the stolen name try to block the original owner.

2020 APR

Retained Counsel — Komorn Law

Michael retains Komorn Law PLLC for MRTMA cannabis licensing and IP protection in Michigan. Pays $19,000+ retainer. The primary deliverable: file a prequalification application. It will never be filed.

2020 MAY

Five Opportunities Sent, Zero Acted On

Michael sends five business opportunities requiring legal review — Hybrid LA, Las Vegas recovery, 3C Cannabis equity, Michigan partners, Common Citizen term sheet. St. Amant acknowledges receipt: 'we are reviewing.' Zero deliverables are ever produced.

2021 JUL

The $350K Email and the Break-In

Attorney Joshua Colton proposes a $350,000 Selsor buyout contingent on closing the Rocky Denha deal ($500,000 + 3 licenses). Four hours after Colton's email, Jeff Selsor breaks into Michael's home and assaults Aimee Metevia. The incident is captured on video.

2021 NOV

$545M Acquisition

TerrAscend Corp acquires Gage Cannabis Co. for $545 million. The brand that GGG built and named in 2009 is now being traded at half a billion dollars — and the original creator has received nothing.

2022 JAN

Cease Work Order Ignored

Michael sends a cease work order to all five Komorn Law attorneys. None respond. Billing continues for 35 more months. Over $9,000 in unauthorized charges are generated after the explicit order to stop.

2024 AUG

The $7,500 Collection Notice

Komorn's new office manager sends a collection notice claiming $7,500. It is sent to both Michael's email and a stranger's email — a breach of confidentiality. 17 of 22 billed items are 'inter-office communication.' Total billed: $16,700. Documents delivered: three.

2025

TTAB — The Tide Turns

USPTO Trademark Trial and Appeal Board Opposition No. 91278331. The entity operating under the Gage name begins missing deadlines. Default proceedings advance. The trademark is coming home.

2026 FEB

EstTech TRO and FBI Referral

Temporary restraining order filed in New York Supreme Court for unpaid wages. Federal referral filed four days later. A separate identity theft matter surfaces — an unauthorized entity formed under Michael's Social Security number.

2026 MAR
