DIVISION OF DRUGS, DEVICES AND COSMETICS

Our company is supposed to be registered with CSR and submitting reports.  What happens if we do not comply?

Failure to comply with CSR requirements could result in (i) denial, refusal to renew, revocation, or suspension of any permit or certification issued to the offender under the Florida Drug and Cosmetic Act; (ii) emergency suspension of or restriction on such a permit or certification; (iii) a cease and desist order; (iv) civil action for injunctive relief; (v) fine assessment in an amount not to exceed $5,000 – per violation, per day; (vi) any other action or relief provided by law; or (vii) some combination of the foregoing. 

In addition to any other consequences, a knowing failure to report (or a knowing submission of false information to CSR) is a third-degree felony punishable as provided under Sections 775.082, 775.083 or 775.084, Florida Statutes, plus a criminal fine in an amount not to exceed three times the gross profits on the transaction(s), and payment of court costs and the reasonable costs of investigation and prosecution.
