ELIZABETH A. KOVACHEVICH, District Judge.
The defendant pleaded guilty to being a felon in possession of a firearm and ammunition, in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1), and the Court adjudged him guilty of this offense.
The United States moves, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 924(d)(1), 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), and Rule 32.2(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, for a Preliminary Order of Forfeiture for a Taurus PT 24/7 Pro CDS 9mm pistol, serial number TCW20631, and approximately 15 rounds of CCI 9mm ammunition.
The United States has established the required connection between the crime of conviction and the assets. Because the United States is entitled to forfeit the property, the motion is GRANTED. Pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 924(d)(1), 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), and Rule 32.2(b)(2) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, the assets described above are FORFEITED to the United States of America for disposition according to law, subject to the provisions of 21 U.S.C. § 853(n), as incorporated by 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c).
The Court retains jurisdiction to complete the forfeiture and disposition of the assets sought by the government.
DONE and ORDERED.
