Article 32

In case a party does not agree with the penalty imposed by the commodity inspection authorities, it may, within 30 days after it receives the punishment decision, apply to the commodity inspection authorities which have made the punishment decision, or the higher commodity inspection authorities or even to the State Administration of Commodity Inspection.

If the party still disagrees with the decision of reconsideration, it may bring a suit before the people's court within 30 days after the date it receives the decision of reconsideration.

During the period for reconsideration and procedural activities, the execution of the original punishment decision shall not be terminated. Unless otherwise specified in laws or regulations and rules, the execution of the original punishment decision shall be executed in accordance with the provision specified in laws, regulations and rules above-mentioned.

If a party neither applies for reconsideration nor brings a suit, and fails to execute the punishment decision within the specified period, the commodity inspection authorities which have made the punishment decision shall appeal to the people's court for compulsory execution.
