The cases reported herewith were instituted in the United States district courts by United States attorneys, acting upon reports submitted by the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare. They involve foods which were alleged to be adulterated or misbranded within the meaning of the Act, when introduced into and while in interstate commerce, or while held for sale after shipment in interstate commerce. These cases involve (1) seizure pro- ceedings in which decrees of condemnation were entered after default, consent, or, in one case, summary judgment; (2) criminal proceedings which were terminated upon pleas of guilty and nolo contendere; and (3) injunction pro- ceedings in which consent decrees of permanent injunction were entered. The seizure proceedings are civil actions taken against the goods alleged to be in violation, and the criminal and injunction proceedings are against the firms or individuals charged to be responsible for violations.
