COLEMAN, Chief Judge.
This action arises under 7 U.S.C. § 2020 et seq. Bruno’s grocery store challenges the Department of Agriculture’s 60-day suspension of its right to redeem food stamps. The District Court found that Bruno’s had violated the Food Stamps Act but ruled that the 60-day suspension was arbitrary and capricious.
