LAWRENCE K. KARLTON, District Judge.
It is hereby stipulated by and between the United States of America and claimant Felipe S. Gonzalez ("claimant"), by and through their respective counsel, as follows:
1. On or about January 9, 2014, claimant Felipe S. Gonzalez filed a claim, in the administrative forfeiture proceedings, with the Drug Enforcement Administration with respect to the Approximately $14,600.00 in U.S. Currency and Approximately $5,900.00 in U.S. Currency (collectively "defendant currency"), which was seized on August 7, 2013.
2. The Drug Enforcement Administration has sent the written notice of intent to forfeit required by 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(1)(A) to all known interested parties.
The time has expired for any person to file a claim to the defendant currency under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(2)(A)-(E), and no person other than the claimant has filed a claim to the defendant currency as required by law in the administrative forfeiture proceeding.
3. Under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(3)(A), the United States is required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture within ninety days after a claim has been filed in the administrative forfeiture proceedings, unless the court extends the deadline for good cause shown or by agreement of the parties. The deadline is April 9, 2014.
4. As provided in 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(3)(A), the parties wish by agreement for an extension to July 8, 2014, the time in which the United States is required to file a civil complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture.
5. Accordingly, the parties agree that the deadline by which the United States shall be required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture shall be extended to July 8, 2014.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
