Center for Food Safety v. Hamburg Name Institutional Affiliation Abstract Previously, the United States witnessed a series of outbreaks of foodborne illness, resulting in several deaths. Investigations revealed that the food industry is more concerned with the profits at the expense of providing quality products and services. Therefore, there was a need to enact the relevant laws that would guide the operations of the food industry. This led to the development of the Food Safety and Modernization Act (FSMA). The implementation of the Act resulted in a lawsuit dubbed Center for Food v Hamburg. The issue presented in this case was whether the FDA unreasonably delaying or unlawfully withholding actions in violation of the APA. The court ruled in favor of the plaintiff and awarded arbitrary deadlines that were equally strict concerned with the implementation of FSMA. Despite the benefits of the FSMA, the strict deadlines attached to this legislation by the court and the Congress may eventually cripple the operations of FDA, leading to high costs of food prices. Considering the scope and the magnitude of what they need to address, the court ought to have given the FDA more time to address the issues presented by the legislation.
