LIVINGSTON - A judge in Park County has ordered two partners in a Livingston-based medical marijuana operation to split their clients and assets in three weeks as the first step toward dissolving their business relationship.

District Judge Nels Swandal had earlier ordered another man to continue caring for the company's marijuana plants at his rented property until a formal decision could be made on their ownership. The civil trial stems from a dispute between Richard Rosio and Rollin Minnick, partners in Caregivers Montana LLC, a medical marijuana supply business.

A rift between the two developed over the winter while they were arranging a growing operation in rented bomb shelter near Emigrant.
