(WXYZ) — Dozens of medical marijuana shops in Michigan were saved from the chopping block.

A judge stopped the state's March 31 deadline for operations to either obtain a license or close their doors.

Michigan Court of Claims Judge Stephen Borrello signed a temporary restraining order Thursday, March 28. As of now, there are about 50 unlicensed medical marijuana dispensaries in Michigan.

Shops now have two weeks to get approved for licenses.
