4:5-64. Where certificate is unsatisfactory
The department may refuse to accept any certificate which, in its judgment, does not show a satisfactory test or which is not properly executed.
The department may quarantine cattle imported into this State without a satisfactory certificate at the expense of the shipper until receipt of evidence that a satisfactory test has been made, that the cattle meet all requirements for shipment to this State and that the certificate has been approved by the proper regulatory official of the State of origin. In lieu of this approved certificate the cattle shall be returned to the State of origin on permit issued by the regulatory officials of that State or be consigned to slaughter.
