§ 2a:123-12.
The penalties provided for a violation of this act shall not apply to any person who
establishes (1) a guaranty received in good faith, signed by and containing the name
and address of the person by whom the fabric or wearing apparel covered by the guaranty
was manufactured or from whom it was received, to the effect that reasonable and representative
tests made under the rules and regulations in accordance with the procedures prescribed
in this act show that the specific type of fabric covered by the guaranty and used
in the wearing apparel or fabric covered by the guaranty when so tested was not highly
flammable within the meaning of this act; and (2), that he has not, by further processing
affected the flammability of the fabric or wearing apparel covered by the guaranty
which he received. Such guaranty shall either be (1) a separate guaranty specifically designating the
wearing apparel or fabric guaranteed, in which case it may be on the invoice or other
paper relating to such wearing apparel or fabric; or (2) continuing guaranty filed
with the commissioner or with the Federal Trade Commission applicable to any wearing
apparel or fabric handled by the guarantor in such form as the commissioner or the
Federal Trade Commission, as the case may be, by rules and regulations, may prescribe. It is provided, however, that a person furnishing such a guaranty (except a person
relying upon a guaranty received in good faith to furnish a guaranty to the same effect,
if he, by further processing, has not affected the flammability of the wearing apparel
or fabric covered by the guaranty) shall not be relieved thereby from any of the penalties
prescribed for the violations of this act.
