Appendix G - Civil Monetary Penalties
Civil monetary penalties (CMP) are non-criminal penalties for violation of Federal law. The Federal Civil Penalties Inflation Adjustment Act of 1990 provides for periodic evaluation to ensure that CMP maintain their deterrent value and that the imposed penalties are properly accounted for and collected. During FY 2004, only the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) imposed CMP.
