Does the imposition of potential imprisonment on individuals violate an infamous crime?

Since we hold that imposition of potential imprisonment on individuals violating a criminal statute does not of itself make corporate violations of the same statute infamous crimes, the only remaining question is whether another factor renders the crimes charged in this case infamous. The crimes charged are not made infamous by the penalties attached to them, because those penalties are only fines. A fine, regardless of its amount, cannot be infamous punishment. See United States v. Armored Transport, Inc., 629 F.2d 1313 at 1319 (9th Cir. 1980). Nor is this crime inherently infamous. The class of inherently infamous crimes, if it exists at all, would encompass only the most serious mala in se. Regulatory crimes, such as those charged in this case, are not inherently infamous.
