  • Export Penalty Cases
    MSR Visual Compliance: Welcome SAMPLE CASES Going to prison or paying a large fine for an export violation seems hypothetical or imaginary until it happens to you. These possibilities are horrifying to both individuals and businesses. But, regretably, American businesses and businesspeople are convicted and fined, and American businesspeople do go to jail. There are both civil and criminal penalties. The heaviest fines are for willful, criminal convictions (currently up to $1 million, increasing to up to $10 million or ten times the value of the export when the new Export Administration Act is passed). Civil penalties are not as harsh, but still consequential. http://www.visualcompliance.com/export_penalties.cfm (1 of 59) [12/13/02 11:21:12 AM] MSR Visual Compliance: Welcome In addition to fines and prison terms under criminal and civil sanctions, there are administrative sanctions (including denial of export privileges and exclusion from practice), statutory sanctions, seizure and forfeiture, cross- debarment, denial of licenses or approvals, and suspensions of the right to contract with the United States Government. Below are some sample cases. Sample case material courtesy of the United States Government Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS). THOMPSON/CENTER ARMS CO., INC.

Introduction The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) is empowered to seek civil penalties in district court against firms found in violation of the Commission's rules and orders. The provisions of the FTC Act which authorize such penalties are vague with respect to size, stating only that penalties shall not exceed $10, 000 for each violation, each day of noncompliance constituting a separate violation. In determining the total amount, the Commission is instructed to consider "the degree of culpability, and history of prior such conduct, ability to pay, effect on ability to continue to do business, and 1 such other matters as justice may require.

  • HOW CIVIL and ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTIES CAN CHANGE the FACE of ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE in SOUTH AFRICA1 Melissa Fourie2 Abstract
    HOW CIVIL AND ADMINISTRATIVE PENALTIES CAN CHANGE THE FACE OF ENVIRONMENTAL COMPLIANCE IN SOUTH AFRICA1 Melissa Fourie2 Abstract At present, the primary way to ensure that a violator of South African environmental legislation pays a punitive monetary penalty is to prosecute the offender beyond reasonable doubt in a criminal court, and to rely on a magistrate to levy an appropriate fine. This not only places an undue burden on an already overburdened criminal justice system, but the resulting low prosecution success rate discourages environmental authorities from pursuing prosecution in the first place. Having regard to comparative international experience, this paper argues that a civil and administrative penalty system that provides for the adjudication of contraventions and the determination of a monetary penalty (having regard to a range of factors) on a balance of probabilities by either an administrative body, civil courts, or both, is not only a feasible innovation in South African legislation, but will significantly improve environmental compliance. 1 Introduction In December 2005, the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) announced the largest administrative penalty ever imposed for an environmental violation: multinational company DuPont was fined R92.25 million,3 with an additional R56.25 million to be paid towards environmental research and education projects. DuPont agreed with the EPA to pay these amounts to settle eight violations of toxic substances and hazardous waste legislation, primarily relating to multiple failures to report information to the EPA about a particular synthetic chemical’s substantial risk of injury to human health and the environment.4 In December 2008, the EPA and the US Justice Department (DoJ) reached an agreement with multinational oil company Exxon Mobil to pay a fine of more than R54 million.
