590. Adulteration of frozen shrimp. U. S. v. 80 Bags of Frozen Shrimp. Default 
decree of condemnation and destruction. (F. D. C. No. 1514. Sample No. 
86113-D.)
On February 26, 1940, the United States attorney for the Southern District 
of New York filed a libel against 80 bags of frozen shrimp at New York, 
N. Y., alleging that the article had been shipped in interstate commerce on or 
about September 27, 1939, by Carteret Fish Co. from Beaufort, N. C.; and 
charging that it was adulterated in that it consisted in whole or in part 
of a decomposed substance.
On March 19, 1940, no claimant having appeared, judgment of condemnation 
was entered and the product was ordered destroyed.
