Description
This is an appeal from a condemnation action brought by the United States pursuant to the Meat Inspection Act, 21 U.S.C. çç 601-695, alleging adulteration of certain beef and offal owned by Jarboe-Lackey Feedlots, Inc. Following an extensive trial, the district court concluded that the government had failed to meet its burden of proving adulteration, 21 U.S.C. ç 601(m)(1), (m)(2)(A), and (m)(3), and dismissed the libel action. The trial court later denied Jarboe-Lackeys petition for attorneys fees under the Equal Access to Justice Act (EAJA), 28 U.S.C. ç 2412 (Supp. 1983), finding that the governments position was "substantially justified" and that the United States had acted in good faith.
