Janco’s Mishawaka plant, which makes fiberglass tubing, was the subject of a federal immigration raid in March 2007 that led to the arrests of 36 undocumented workers.
Judge Robert L. Miller Jr. of the US District Court of the Northern District of Indiana accepted guilty pleas from both Janco and its president, Douglas Jaques, in a binding plea agreement that set out the terms of sentencing.
Janco was placed on probation for five years and fined $210,000. The company will have to pay $42,000 immediately and $7,000 a month with interest later.
While on probation, Janco will also have to institute a compliance program to meet hiring guidelines.
Jaques was placed on probation for one year, but allowed to travel within Indiana, Illinois, Wisconsin and Michigan. He also must pay an immediate fine of $30,000.
Jaques declined comment after the hearing.
