Morgan Stanley Maintains Equal-Weight on Hartford Finl Servs Gr, Lowers Price Target to $109

<p>In Queens, New York, a homeowner's confrontation with unexpected occupants at her late father's house spiraled into a dramatic legal tangle that highlights the complex issue of squatter rights in the city.</p>
<p>Adele Andaloro, 47, inherited a property valued at $1 million after her parents died. She discovered strangers living there during a visit to prepare the house for sale. When she changed the locks to secure the property, one of the occupants called the police, leading to her brief arrest. Though she faces no charges, the ordeal showcases the difficulties homeowners and law enforcement face with squatters in New York.</p>
<p>According to the Daily Mail, Andaloro voiced her concerns about the effectiveness of local laws, stating, "I'm really fearful that these people are going to get away with stealing my home."</p>

<p>Neighbors have reported suspicious activity since the occupants moved in.&nbsp;</p>
<p>"We all know what they are up to, so we're all kind of pissed about it," Kosta, a 24-year-old college student living next door, told the news outlet.&nbsp;</p>
<p>Squatter's rights in New York offer a legal framework that can make eviction challenging. After 30 days of occupancy in New York City, squatters can claim legal rights to a property, complicating efforts to remove them. This situation has left Andaloro and her neighbors frustrated as they navigate the legal and social implications of squatter claims.</p>
<p>The incident has sparked a broader discussion on the need for clearer regulations and more support for property owners facing similar predicaments.</p>

<p>Recent research reveals that states adopting recreational <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/cannabis" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cannabis</a> laws (RCLs) in the U.S. may have fewer immigration deportations related to cannabis offenses.</p>
<p>The study, conducted by <strong>Emilie Bruzelius</strong> and <strong>Silvia S. Martins</strong> and published in <strong>BMC Public Health</strong>, analyzed the period from 2009 to 2020, offering insights into the relationship between immigration and drug policy reform.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Study Findings On Deportations</strong></h3>
<p>The researchers utilized data from the <strong>Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse</strong>, focusing on immigration arrests and deportations where cannabis possession was cited. Researchers found that by 2020 states with RCLs showed a notable decrease in deportation rates related to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38101290/gov-healeys-mega-pardon-for-cannabis-possession-unanimously-approved-by-council" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cannabis possession</a>. Specifically, the adoption of these laws led to a &#8220;moderate relative decrease in deportation prevalence,&#8221; indicating a 32% reduction in deportations compared to states without recreational cannabis laws.</p>
<p>&#8220;Decreasing penalties for cannabis possession through state RCLs may reduce some aspects of immigration enforcement related to cannabis possession,&#8221; the <a href="https://bmcpublichealth.biomedcentral.com/articles/10.1186/s12889-024-18334-y" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">study</a> notes.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Arrest Rates Show No Significant Change</strong></h3>
<p>However, while deportations have declined, the study found no significant changes in the rates of immigration arrests <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/04/38320048/one-in-two-biden-voters-want-to-live-in-a-place-where-marijuana-is-legal-one-in-eight-trump-supp" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">post-RCL adoption</a>. &#8220;For the deportation outcome, however, RCL adoption was associated with a moderate relative decrease in deportation prevalence in RCL versus non-RCL states,&#8221; the study points out, suggesting that while some benefits are evident, the full spectrum of effects remains mixed and warrants further investigation.</p>
<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Broader Implications And Recommendations</strong></h3>
<p>The paper argues that these findings could inform more nuanced cannabis policies that consider <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/23/11/35966920/how-cannabis-laws-impact-non-citizens-a-minnesota-perspective-on-unequal-treatment" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">their broader implications, especially for non-citizens</a>. &#8220;Greater attention to the immigration-related consequences of current drug control policies is warranted, particularly as more states weigh the public health benefits and drawbacks of legalizing cannabis,&#8221; the researchers advocate.</p>
<p>Moreover, the study warns of a potential risk where immigrants might falsely assume that state <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/cannabis-legalization" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">cannabis legalization</a> shields them from federal penalties. &#8220;State adoption of RCLs might lead more people who are non-citizens to reasonably but falsely assume that federal immigration status is unaffected by cannabis use permissible under state law,&#8221; the authors caution.</p>
<p>The findings contribute to mounting evidence that adult-use legalization could alleviate unintended consequences of cannabis prohibition for non-citizens. However, the researchers advocate for further studies to grasp the full impact on immigration enforcement. With <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/03/37964845/9-out-of-10-americans-support-some-form-of-legal-cannabis-pew-research-center-finds" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">increasing support for cannabis legalization nationwide</a>, this study underscores the need for nuanced policies to address these intertwined issues effectively.</p>
