On May 14, 1941, the United States attorney for the Territory of Hawaii filed 
libels against 10 68-pound cubes and 20 cases each containing 30 pounds of butter 
consigned by rye & Nissen, Inc., alleging that the article had been shipped from 
San Francisco, Calif., on or about May 9, 1941; and charging that it was adul- 
terated and misbranded. A portion of the article was labeled in part: (Cases) 
"Burdell Butter."
The article was alleged to be adulterated in that it contained less than 80 
percent by weight of milk fat. It was alleged to be misbranded in that it was 
labeled "Butter," which was false and misleading.
On May 16,1941, Nye & Nissen, Inc., claimant, having admitted the allegations 
of the libels, judgments of condemnation were entered and the product was 
ordered released under bond conditioned that it be repacked (reworked) under 
the supervision of the Food and Drug Administration.
