<p>Grammy-winning songwriter <strong><strong><a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cannabis/24/06/39281611/two-new-books-unveil-the-healing-power-of-medical-cannabis">Melissa Etheridge</a></strong> </strong>is embroiled in a legal dispute with two former business partners from Northern California, who allege she abandoned their joint cannabis venture, leaving them in financial ruin.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened</strong>: Etheridge Farms was launched in 2019 with the idea of providing cannabis products for middle-aged women. </p>
<p>"They're looking to cannabis, and I want Etheridge Farms to be right there to answer what they're looking for," Etheridge said at the time.</p>
<p>However, by 2024, former partners Josephine and D&#8217;Angelo Roberto claimed that Etheridge and her wife withdrew their support, effectively crippling the business. The Robertos filed a legal petition on July 9, alleging abandonment and financial ruin, <a href="https://www.billboard.com/pro/melissa-etheridge-failed-cannabis-business-legal-dispute/">reported</a> Billboard.</p>
<p>&#8220;The Robertos trusted the Etheridges and invested their life's work into the businesses. Unfortunately, their hard work did not end in a success story, but rather betrayal and abandonment,&#8221; said the Robertos&#8217; attorney <strong>Christopher Frost</strong>.</p>
<p>Etheridge&#8217;s involvement in cannabis was inspired by her battle with breast cancer in the 2000s. "I came out of chemotherapy saying, I want to be an advocate for this, I believe in this as medicine so deeply," she said.</p>

<p>The partnership initially appeared promising until it didn't. The foursome secured the necessary licenses and a large facility in California where they intended to produce and distribute their products. The business plan foresaw the Robertos providing industry expertise and product development, while the Etheridges would use Melissa's celebrity to promote the brand and attract investors.</p>
<p>The Robertos say they invested all their resources into the business and that the Etheridges failed to do their part. They claim Etheridge did not promote the business as expected and eventually stopped providing financial support, including paying the facility&#8217;s rent, which led to eviction and loss their regulatory licenses.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading"><strong>Death Of A Son</strong></h2>
<p>In the midst of this conflict in May 2020, Etheridge announced that her 21-year-old son Beckett Cypher had died from causes related to opioid addiction. Months later, she launched the <a href="https://www.etheridgefoundation.org/">Etheridge Foundation</a> to advocate for and support research into new treatments for opioid addiction.</p>
<p>The Robertos are now seeking damages of at least $3 million compensation for financial hardship caused by the alleged abandonment.</p>
<p>"The Robertos have not pursued this action and are not proceeding to arbitration for fame or fortune or as a vendetta," their lawyers say. "Rather, they simply seek compensation for the suffering they have had to endure and the financial ruin they have experienced due to the Etheridges abandoning them."</p>

<p>The airline sector was one of the hardest hit by the Microsoft Outage and <strong>CrowdStrike</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CRWD#NASDAQ">CRWD</a>) <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39861744/microsoft-outage-what-states-services-companies-saw-the-blue-screen-of-death">issue on Friday.</a></p>
<p>While the issues have subsided in recent days, one airline may demonstrate its resilience and ability to avoid the outages that impacted its competitors.</p>
<p><strong>What Happened:</strong> An <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/07/39853528/microsoft-cloud-outage-grounds-flights-disrupts-operations-of-frontier-allegiant-and-sun-country">update by CrowdStrike</a> impacted industries and companies using<strong> Microsoft Corporation </strong>(NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MSFT#NASDAQ">MSFT</a>) software and cloud services on Friday.</p>
<p>The airline sector was <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/39875314/crowdstrike-update-for-microsoft-windows-continues-to-cause-chaos-thousands-of-us-flights-canceled-f">hit particularly hard</a> with <strong>Delta Air Lines</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DAL#NYSE">DAL</a>), <strong>United Airline Holdings</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UAL#NASDAQ">UAL</a>) and <strong>American Airlines Group</strong> (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AAL#NASDAQ">AAL</a>) all suffering outages and grounded flights due to the technology issues.</p>
<p><strong>Southwest Airlines</strong> (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LUV#NYSE">LUV</a>) was not impacted by the tech issues and could come through as a winner.</p>
<p>According to a Digital Trends <a href="https://www.digitaltrends.com/computing/southwest-cloudstrike-windows-3-1/">report</a>, Southwest Airlines planes were still operating on Friday as other peers were grounded. The surprising reason is likely the fact that Southwest has been procrastinating on software updates in recent years.</p>
<p>Digital Trends reports that Southwest is using Windows 3.1, an operating system from 1992 from Microsoft.</p>
<p>The report mentioned that some of Southwest&#8217;s systems are still running on Windows 95 and Windows 3.1, which has been a recurring issue, prompting calls for the company to upgrade to newer systems.</p>
<p>"It should go without saying that Southwest needs to update its system, but in this case, the ancient operating systems seem to be doing the airline some favors to avoid a complete Y2K-level apocalypse," Digital Trends writes.</p>

<p><strong>Why It's Important:</strong> Millions of travelers were impacted by the outage Friday, which led to cancelled flights and delays.</p>
<p>For airline companies, this means they will likely have to issue vouchers, refunds, and other compensations, impacting both current and future revenue. Additionally, they will probably face numerous customer complaints, despite the tech issues often being beyond their control.</p>
<p>Southwest escaping the same customer and revenue issues could set the airline company up well for the future.</p>
<p>The airline company is set to report second-quarter financial results on Thursday. The company could use the earnings report and conference call as an opportunity to highlight its strength in remaining operational during the major tech outage that impacted the sector.</p>
<p><strong>LUV Price Action:</strong> Southwest shares are up 1.36% to $27.55 on Monday, versus a 52-week trading range of $21.91 to $37.40. Southwest shares are down 5.1% year-to-date in 2024.</p>
