§ 737.74 - New receipts; expenses.

If a question arises as to the accuracy of an official sample, or whether the type, grade, form, or condition of the tobacco was correctly stated in a receipt or certificate issued under the act or the regulations in this part, the warehouseman concerned or any person financially interested in the tobacco involved may, after reasonable notice to the other party, submit the question to such committee as the Administrator may appoint. The decision of the committee shall be final, unless the Administrator shall direct a review of the question. Immediately upon making their decision, the committee shall issue a certificate embodying their findings to the appellants and the licensee or licensees involved. If the decision of the committee be that the sample was not representative of the package of tobacco, or that the type, grade, form, or condition was not correctly stated, the receipt or certificate involved shall be returned to and canceled by the licensee who issued it and the licensee shall issue in lieu thereof a new receipt or certificate embodying therein the statement of type, grade, form, or condition in accordance with the findings of the committee. All necessary and reasonable expense of such appeal shall be borne by the losing party, unless the Administrator shall decide that the expense should be prorated between the parties.
