Title 2, Chapter 13, Section 14
( 2-13-14)
(a) Withdrawal from distribution orders. When the Commissioner or
his authorized agent has reasonable cause to believe that any lot of
commercial feed is being distributed in violation of this chapter or
any of the prescribed regulations under this chapter, he may issue
and enforce a written or printed withdrawal from distribution order,
warning the distributor not to dispose of the lot of commercial feed
in any manner until written permission is given by the Commissioner
or the court. The Commissioner shall release the lot of commercial
feed so withdrawn when such provisions and regulations have been
complied with. If compliance is not obtained within 30 days, the
Commissioner may begin, or upon request of the distributor or
licensee shall begin, proceedings for condemnation. (b) Condemnation and confiscation. Any lot of commercial feed not
in compliance with such provisions and regulations shall be subject
to seizure on complaint of the Commissioner to the superior court of
the county in which the commercial feed is located. If the court
finds the commercial feed to be in violation of this chapter and
orders the condemnation of the commercial feed, it shall be disposed
of in any manner consistent with the quality of the commercial feed
and the laws of this state, provided that in no instance shall the
disposition of the commercial feed be ordered by the court without
first giving the claimant an opportunity to apply to the court for
release of the commercial feed or for permission to process or
relabel the commercial feed to bring it into compliance with this
chapter. |
