DEFAULT JUDGMENT OF FORFEITURE
RICHARD A. JONES, District Judge.
THIS MATTER came before the Court on the United States' Request for Entry of a Default Judgment of Forfeiture ("Request"). See Dkt. No. 9. Having reviewed the Request, as well as the other pleadings and papers filed in this matter, the Court FINDS a Default Judgment of Forfeiture is appropriately entered because:
• The United States properly served, by direct notice and publication, all potential claimants to the above-captioned $36,360.00 and any accrued interest ("the Defendant Currency") (Declaration of AUSA Michelle Jensen in Support of Request for Entry of Default, Dkt. No. 7-1);
• No one has filed a claim to the Defendant Currency or otherwise appeared in this case; and,
• On October 31, 2017, the Clerk of Court entered default against all potential claimants to the Defendant Currency (Order of Default, Dkt. No. 8).
NOW, THEREFORE, THE COURT ENTERS a Default Judgment of Forfeiture, as follows:
1. The Defendant Currency is fully and finally forfeited, in its entirety, to the United States pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(6); hereafter, no right, title, or interest in the Defendant Currency shall exist in any other party; and,
2. The United States Marshals Service, and/or its agents and representatives, shall dispose of the Defendant Currency as permitted by governing law.
