GARLAND E. BURRELL, Jr., Senior District Judge.
IT IS HEREBY STIPULATED by and between plaintiff United States of America and Guns, Fishing & Other Stuff (hereafter "petitioner"), to compromise and settle their interest in the following property, and to consent to the entry of a Final Order of Forfeiture as to the following assets pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(c), 18 U.S.C. § 924(d)(1), and 28 U.S.C. § 2461(c):
1. This stipulation for Final Order of Forfeiture is entered into between the parties pursuant to the plea in open court of Jaymar Dwaune Jamerson in which he pleaded guilty to Count Three, which charges a Felon in Possession of a Firearm in violation of 18 U.S.C. § 922(g)(1) of the Superseding Indictment. The Court entered a Preliminary Order of Forfeiture on June 11, 2012. Pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(1), the United States sent direct notice to Guns, Fishing & Other Stuff by certified mail on June 13, 2012, and published Notice of the Forfeiture Action on the official internet government forfeiture site
2. The parties hereby stipulate that Guns, Fishing & Other Stuff has an interest in the firearm. Guns, Fishing & Other Stuff has a legal right, title, or interest in the firearm, and that such right, title, or interest requires the Court to amend the Preliminary Order of Forfeiture pursuant to Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(c)(2) to account for Guns, Fishing & Other Stuff`s interest because such interest was vested in them rather than the Defendant at the time of the commission of the act which gave rise to the forfeiture of the firearm. See 28 U.S.C. § 2461 (c)(incorporating 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)). The parties further stipulate, however, that the Preliminary Order of Forfeiture remains valid to the extent it orders the forfeiture of any interest Jaymar Dwaune Jamerson has in the firearm.
3. Petitioner understands and agrees that the firearm held by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives ("ATF"), will not be released to petitioner until the "Law Enforcement Gun Release Application" is executed by petitioner and filed with the California Department of Justice Bureau of Firearms and any necessary fees are paid. ATF will release the firearm to petitioner within thirty (30) days of receipt of notification from the California Department of Justice Bureau of Firearms that the application has been approved and all fees have been paid in full.
4. Petitioner understands and agrees that the United States reserves the right to void the stipulation if, before the return of the firearm, the U.S. Attorney obtains new information indicating that the petitioner is not "innocent owner" pursuant to the applicable forfeiture statute. A discretionary termination of forfeiture shall not be a basis for any award of fees.
5. The court shall maintain jurisdiction over this matter to, inter alia, enforce the terms of this stipulation.
The Court having received, read, and considered the foregoing Stipulation of the parties, and good cause appearing therefrom, the Stipulated Settlement is hereby ADOPTED and APPROVED, and the Court hereby enters a Final Order of Forfeiture on the terms set forth in the parties' Stipulated Settlement.
