Official statutory text

The Board may (for such period, or indefinitely, as it deems

necessary to effectuate the purposes of this act) refuse to provide,

or withdraw, inspection service under Sections 1 through 16 of this

act with respect to any establishment if it determines, after

opportunity for a hearing is accorded to the applicant for, or

recipient of, such service, that such applicant or recipient is

unfit to engage in any business requiring inspection under Sections

1 through 16 of this act because the applicant or recipient, or

anyone responsibly connected with the applicant or recipient, has

been convicted, in any federal or state court of (1) any felony, or

(2) more than one (1) violation of any law, other than a felony,

based upon the acquiring, handling, or distributing of unwholesome,

mislabeled, or deceptively packaged food or upon fraud in connection

with transactions in food. This section shall not affect in any way

other provisions of this act for withdrawal of inspection services

under Sections 1 through 16 from establishments failing to maintain

sanitary conditions or to destroy condemned carcasses, parts, meat

or meat food products.

For the purpose of this section a person shall be deemed to be

responsibly connected with the business if he was a partner,

officer, director, holder, or owner of ten percent (10%) or more of

its voting stock or employee in a managerial or executive capacity.

The determination and order of the Board with respect thereto under

this section shall be final and conclusive unless the affected

applicant for, or recipient of, inspection service files application

for judicial review within thirty (30) days after the effective date

of such order in the appropriate court as provided in Section 25.

Judicial review of any such order shall be upon the record upon

which the determination and order are based.
