“A Northern California grocery store chain that caters to the Latino community has agreed to pay $95,571.64 in civil penalties, costs and restitution after being charged with selling food products that were short of the weight represented on the package, according to the Santa Clara District Attorney’s Office.

The Santa Clara County District Attorney’s Consumer Protection Unit joined with the district attorney of Santa Cruz County in resolving the civil action against Mi Pueblo San Jose Inc. Mi Pueblo operates a chain of 10 supermarkets with stores located in four Northern California counties, including one in Watsonville.”*
