§ 156-g. Seizure of misbranded, mislabeled or misrepresented farm

products. Whenever the commissioner or his duly authorized

representative shall find that any farm product is misbranded,

mislabeled or misrepresented within the meaning of this article, he may

seize such product, so that it cannot be sold, offered, exposed or

transported for sale, and he may affix to such farm product a tag or

other appropriate marking, giving notice that such product is

misbranded, mislabeled or misrepresented, and warning all persons not to

remove or dispose of such product by sale or otherwise until such

product is branded or labeled properly and permission to dispose of the

product has been granted by the commissioner or his duly authorized

representative. It shall be a violation of this article for any person

to remove or dispose of such product so seized by sale or otherwise

without such permission.
