Comment on Lumber Liquidators Settles With Federal Government

Lumber Liquidators Settles With Federal Government

Discount flooring superstore Lumber Liquidators has found itself under two separate federal investigations this year: one alleging that some of their products give off potentially dangerous chemicals, and another alleging that the company illegally imported hardwoods. They’ve now settled the latter charge by pleading guilty, and will pay $10 million to the federal government and a wildlife charity. The company agreed that it will plead guilty to the Lacey Act, a law that bans illegally-harvested animal and plant products, including trees, from sale in the United States.
