. If the court finds that an embargoed food, drug, device, or
cosmetic is adulterated, misbranded, falsely advertised, or the sale
of which is otherwise in violation of this part, the food, drug,
device, or cosmetic shall, after entry of the judgment, be destroyed
at the expense of the claimant or owner, under the supervision of an
authorized agent of the department. All court costs and fees and all
reasonable costs incurred by the department in investigating and
prosecuting the action, including, but not limited to, the costs of
storage and testing, shall be taxed against the claimant or owner of
the food, drug, device, or cosmetic or his or her agent. When the
adulteration or misbranding can be corrected by proper labeling or
processing of the food, drug, device, or cosmetic, or when the false
advertisement can be corrected and when all provisions of this part
can be complied with, then, after entry of the judgment and after
costs, fees, and expenses have been paid and a good and sufficient
bond, conditioned that the food, drug, device, or cosmetic will be
brought into compliance, the court may, by order, direct that the
food, drug, device, or cosmetic be delivered to the claimant or owner
to be brought into compliance by labeling, processing, or other
means under the supervision of an authorized agent of the department.
The expense of the supervision shall be paid by the claimant or
owner. The bond shall be discharged when the court finds that the
food, drug, device, or cosmetic is no longer held for sale in
violation of this part and that all of the expenses of supervision
have been paid.
