CONSENT ORDER AND JUDGMENT OF FORFEITURE

WHEREAS, the defendant, BARRY CARLTON TAYLOR, has entered into a plea agreement (incorporated by reference herein) with the United States and has voluntarily pleaded guilty pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 11 to one or more criminal offenses under which forfeiture may be ordered;

WHEREAS, the defendant and the United States stipulate and agree that the property described below constitutes property derived from or traceable to proceeds of the defendant's offense(s) herein; property involved in the offenses, or any property traceable to such property; and/or property used in any manner to facilitate the commission of such offense(s); or substitute property for which under 21 U.S.C. § 853(p) and Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(e); and is therefore subject to forfeiture pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 982, 18 U.S.C. § 981(a)(1), and/or 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c), provided, however, that such forfeiture is subject to any and all third party claims and interests, pending final adjudication herein;

WHEREAS, the defendant herein waives the requirements of Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.2 regarding notice of the forfeiture in the charging instrument, announcement of the forfeiture at sentencing, and incorporation of the forfeiture in the judgment against defendant;

WHEREAS, pursuant to Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 32.2(b)(1) & (c)(2), the Court finds that there is the requisite nexus between the property and the offense(s) to which the defendant has pleaded guilty and/or that a personal money judgment in the amount of criminal proceeds may be entered and that the defendant has a legal or possessory interest in the property;

WHEREAS, the defendant withdraws any claim previously submitted in response to an administrative forfeiture or civil forfeiture proceeding concerning any of the property described below. If the defendant has not previously submitted such a claim, the defendant hereby waives all right to do so. If any administrative forfeiture or civil forfeiture proceeding concerning any of the property described below has previously been stayed, the defendant hereby consents to a lifting of the stay and consents to forfeiture.

WHEREAS, the undersigned United States Magistrate Judge is authorized to enter this Order by the previous Order of this Court No. 3:05MC302-C (September 8, 2005);

NOW, THEREFORE, IT IS HEREBY ORDERED THAT:

The following property is forfeited to the United States:

A personal money judgment in forfeiture in the amount of $2,200,000.00, which sum represents proceeds obtained, directly or indirectly, from the offenses pleaded to, provided that the United States agrees, although not required by law, that it will reduce the outstanding money judgment amounts by any payments made by the defendant towards restitution in this criminal case.

The personal money judgment in forfeiture shall be included in the sentence of the defendant, and the United States Department of Justice may take steps to collect the judgment from any property, real or personal, of the defendant, in accordance with the substitute asset provisions of 21 U.S.C. § 853(p).

Upon the seizure of any property to satisfy all or part of the judgment, if and to the extent required by Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.2(b)(6), 21 U.S.C. § 853(n), and/or other applicable law, the United States shall publish notice and provide direct written notice of this forfeiture.

Any person, other than the defendant, asserting any legal interest in the property may, within thirty days of the publication of notice or the receipt of notice, whichever is earlier, petition the court for a hearing to adjudicate the validity of the alleged interest.

Pursuant to Rule 32.2(b)(3) of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure, upon entry of this Order of Forfeiture, the United States Attorney's Office is authorized to conduct any discovery needed to identify, locate or dispose of the property, including depositions, interrogatories, requests for production of documents and to issue subpoenas, pursuant to Rule 45 of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure.

Following the Court's disposition of all timely petitions filed, if any, a final order of forfeiture shall be entered, as provided by Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure 32.2(c)(2). Pursuant to Rule 32.2(b)(4)(A), the defendant consents that this order shall be final as to defendant upon filing.
