At the request of FDA, a California judge has ordered a Los Angeles seafood company, L.A. Star Seafood Company Inc., to halt production until the company can demonstrate to FDA it is in compliance with food safety laws and regulations.
After a 2012 recall of some of the company’s products, FDA said it sent the company a warning letter detailing corrective actions needed in order to comply with Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act and Current Good Manufacturing Practice requirements. A follow-up inspection by FDA in 2014 found the company failed to comply with the law.
