No person, either by himself or herself or by his or her agent or servant, or the agent or servant of any person, shall use or keep to be used for weighing or measuring any article to be bought or sold, or offered or expose for sale, any weights, measures or implements for weighing or measuring which are liable to indicate false or inaccurate weight or measure, or which do not conform to the standards established by law. The Sealer of Weights and Measures is authorized and required to seize and remove all such weights and measures, and, on conviction of any person for using, or keeping to be used, any such weight, measure, implement or appliance for weighing or measuring, the court may adjudge and declare such weight, measure, implement or appliance for weighing or measuring forfeited, and direct the Sealer to destroy the same, which he or she shall forthwith do.
