Honorable Richard A. Jones United States District Judge

THIS MATTER comes before the Court on the United States' Motion for a Final Order of Forfeiture (“Motion”) for the following property (“Subject Property”):

The Court, having reviewed the United States' Motion, as well as the other pleadings and papers filed in this matter, hereby FINDS entry of a Final Order of Forfeiture is appropriate for the following reasons:

• On April 2, 2024, the Court entered a Preliminary Order of Forfeiture finding the Subject Property forfeitable pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2253(a), and forfeiting the Defendant's interest in it, Dkt. No. 43;
• Thereafter, the United States published notice of the pending forfeitures as required by 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(1) and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.2(b)(6)(C), Dkt. No. 50, and provided direct notice to three potential claimants as required by Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(6)(A), see Declaration of AUSA Jehiel I. Baer in Support of Motion for a Final Order of Forfeiture ¶ 2, Exhibits A, B & C; and
• The time for filing third-party petitions has expired, and no such petitions were filed claiming an interest in the Subject Property.

NOW, THEREFORE, THE COURT ORDERS:

1. No right, title, or interest in the Subject Property exists in any party other than the United States;

2. The Subject Property is fully and finally condemned and forfeited, in its entirety, to the United States; and

3. The United States Department of Justice, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and/or its representatives, is authorized to dispose of the Subject Property as permitted by governing law.

IT IS SO ORDERED.
