595. Adulteration of   frozen   shrimp.     TT.   S.   v.   12   Boxes   of   Frozen   Shrimp.
Default decree of condemnation, forfeiture, and destruction.     (F. D. C. No.
1563.    Sample No. 86471-D.)
On March 5, 1940, the United States attorney for the Southern District of 
New York filed a libel against 12 boxes, each containing 120 to 130 pounds, 
of frozen shrimp at New York, N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped 
in interstate commerce on or about October 8, 1938, by the Pacetti Fish Co. 
from Port Arthur, Tex.; and charging that it was adulterated in that it 
consisted in whole or in part of a decomposed substance.
On April 4, 1940, no claimant having appeared, a decree of condemnation 
and forfeiture was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
