On August 13, 2009, the USDA\/APHIS filed a Motion for Summary Judgment requesting the termination of Bauck\u2019s license. It is rare for the agency to request the revocation of a license, especially through the expedited means of a summary judgment. CAPS believes the use of a summary judgment was due to the pressure APHIS felt from our petition for rulemaking. This petition requests that Animal Welfare regulations be amended to require the automatic revocation of a USDA license upon the conviction in a court of law of a licensee, such as Bauck, for animal cruelty. <\/p>\n<p> On September 29, the administrative law judge issued a Decision and Order in the Bauck case, granting APHIS\u2019 motion for summary judgment. On October 29, Bauck appealed that decision to the judicial officer. APHIS filed a response to her appeal on November 18. The judicial officer\u2019s Decision and Order dated December 2 terminated Bauck\u2019s license. Bauck can file a petition for reconsideration, but based on the strong language in the December 2nd decision, it is almost certain that USDA will deny the petition.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/44885646@N03\/sets\/72157622855719988\/show\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Investigation Pictures<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"index.php?option=com_content&amp;task=view&amp;id=169&amp;Itemid=207&amp;report_id=161\">Investigation Reports and Undercover Video<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Update on USDA&#8217;s Case Against Kathy Bauck: USDA Shuts Down Puppy Mill Date: 2010-01-11 Publication:TheBostonChannel.com URL:http:\/\/www.thebostonchannel.com\/news\/22205030\/detail.html Also see Youtube: http:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/WCVBtv#p\/u\/6\/QjbLfOYBbek<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":10,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"inline_featured_image":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[81],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1729","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-in-the-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v28.3 -
