Walmart has agreed to pay millions to resolve allegations that it sold expired infant formula and over-the-counter drugs in California stores.<\/p>\n

The settlement<\/a> with district attorneys from Solano, Alameda, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Joaquin, Sonoma and Yolo counties totals $16 million and was filed in Alameda County Superior Court.<\/p>\n

Under the judgment, Walmart is barred from selling infant formula past its \u201cuse by\u201d date or expired OTC drugs at any California location.<\/p>\n

The retailer must also launch an Enhanced Expired Product & Inventory Compliance Program with employee training and dedicated staff hours to pull expired items.<\/p>\n

Sonoma County will receive $2.2 million in civil penalties and $60,000 in cost recovery.<\/p>\n

Sonoma County District Attorney Carla Rodriguez said the judgment locks in those sale bans under California law.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnder California law and the terms of the judgment, Walmart is prohibited from selling infant formula after the \u2018use by\u2019 date and expired OTC drugs in California.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Investigators found no evidence that outdated products caused physical harm, and prosecutors say Walmart cooperated with early compliance steps before the deal was finalized.<\/p>\n
