WHEREAS, in accordance with Supplemental Rule G(4)(i)(A), the Government is not required to publish notice, as the property forfeited is worth less than $1,000.

That based upon the Memorandum of Plea Agreement as to the defendant Matthew Hartley Benton and other evidence of record, the United States is hereby authorized to seize the above-stated personal property, and it is hereby forfeited to the United States for disposition in accordance with the law, including destruction, subject to the provisions of 21 U.S.C. § 853(n), as allowed by Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(3). In accordance with Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(3), this Order is-now final as to the defendant.

4. That it appears from the record that no claims, contested or otherwise, have been filed for the property described in Defendant's January 4, 2018 Plea Agreement.
