WHEREAS, no claims were filed regarding the $80,300.00 United States Currency; and
WHEREAS, the Court finds that Defendant, JOHN BAXTER, had an interest in the property that is subject to forfeiture pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853;
NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that the $80,300.00 United States Currency is hereby forfeited to the United States of America pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853;
IT IS FURTHER ORDERED, ADJUDGED AND DECREED that all right, title and interest to the property described above is hereby condemned, forfeited and vested in the United States of America, and shall be disposed of according to law; and
