of
the Rhode Island General Laws
2005 Rhode Island Code - § 21-27-5 — Notice to cease business.
Whenever the director deems it necessary in the interests of public health to
cause any food business to cease operating the director may do so by serving
written notice upon the owner or manager of the food business; provided, that
before the notice is given the owner or manager shall have been given an
opportunity to show cause why the food business should not cease operating.
Written notice to cease operating a food business shall remain in effect until
the director serves further notice permitting the resumption of operation of
the food business. The director may obtain relief in equity or by prerogative
writ whenever this relief shall be necessary in the proper performance of his
or her duties under this section.
