Power to regulate nearly destroyed Bradley Import Company
The 1974 Bradley doll seizure under CPSC rules illustrates regulatory overreach. Judge Bechtle ruled the government failed on all points as the dolls were gift items not toys, sold in gift shops with no child use implied, and no injury complaints had been recorded.

Government witness contests Bradley doll seizure in court
The government's own witness testified that Bradley type imported dolls were kept behind glass and not for use by children, making confiscation unjust. The dolls were returned after the U S Circuit Court upheld the lower ruling. Hartstein reports $600000 in lost sales and heavy legal costs. A Buckley amendment seeks damages for such regulatory errors.
