Section 3:4613 - Commodities in package form; stamping of weight or measure; standard fillA. No one shall keep for the purpose of sale, offer or expose for sale, or sell any commodity in package form unless the net quantity of the contents is plainly and conspicuously marked on the outside of the package, in terms of weight, measure, or numerical count. A box or carton used for shipping purposes containing a number of packages which are individually marked as provided in this Subsection need not be so marked itself.B. No one shall keep for the purpose of sale, offer or expose for sale, or sell any commodity in package form if its container is so made, formed, or filled, or if it is so wrapped as to mislead the purchaser as to the quantity of the contents, or if the contents of its container fall below the standard of fill prescribed by rules or regulations promulgated as provided in this Section.C. The commissioner may adopt rules and regulations, in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act, fixing and establishing, for any commodity in package form, a reasonable standard of fill of containers in order to effectuate the purposes of this Section.D. There is no violation of this Chapter if a discrepancy between the actual weight or volume at the time of sale to the consumer and the weight marked on the container, or between the fill of the container and the capacity of the container, is due to unavoidable leakage, shrinkage, evaporation, or waste, or to causes beyond the control of the vendor acting in good faith.E. As used in this Section, the words "in package form" include a commodity in a package, carton, case, can, box, barrel, bottle, phial, or other receptacle, or in coverings or wrappings of any kind, packed by the manufacturer or when packed prior to the order of the commodity by the vendor, which may be labeled, branded, or stenciled, or otherwise marked, or which may be suitable for labeling, branding, or stenciling, or marking otherwise, making one complete package of the commodity. The term shall include both the wholesale and the retail package.
