Dollar Tree Inc. was issued a federal grand jury subpoena related to a pest and sanitation issue, according to a filing from the discount retailer on Tuesday.

The company said that the Eastern District of Arkansas requested information, documents and records about pests, sanitation and the company’s compliance with the law. The announcement follows a Food and Drug Administration warning earlier this year about potential contamination of products sold at the company’s Family Dollar chain following a rodent infestation at a distribution facility.
