Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

§ 17. Judicial Action in order to Stop Sale or Use, or to Regulate Removal.

1. After service of an order to stop sale or use or to regulate removal is made upon any person, either that person, the registrant or the Director may file an action in the circuit court for the county in which a violation is alleged to have occurred for an adjudication of the alleged violation. The court in such action may enter a temporary restraining order or preliminary or permanent injunctions or other order as it deems necessary or advisable. Such injunction or order shall be entered without bond. The court may order condemnation of any pesticide or device not meeting the requirements of this Act or regulation adopted thereunder.

2. After entry of a judgment that the pesticide or device is condemned it shall be disposed of at the direction of the court.

A. The condemned pesticide or device may be delivered to the owner or registrant for relabeling, reprocessing, or removal from the State.

B. The condemned pesticide or device may remain condemned and existing stocks in the State sold by the Director who will pay all costs associated with the disbursement, with the balance of the proceeds being deposited in the State Treasury. The pesticide or device shall not be sold contrary to any provision of this Act, regulations adopted thereunder or a provision of FIFRA.  1 The purchaser shall pay the costs and provide good and sufficient bond insuring that the pesticide or device shall not be disposed of unlawfully.

C. The current inventory stocks of the condemned pesticide or device may be disposed of by sale at the places of distribution under supervision of the Director. No new stock shall be delivered for distribution, sale, or use in the State until any condition giving rise to the order to stop sale or use or to regulate removal and the subsequent condemnation has been corrected.
