LEWIS T. BABCOCK, Senior District Judge.

THIS MATTER comes before the Court on the United States' Motion for Default and Final Order of Forfeiture as to defendant[s] property, the Court having reviewed said Motion FINDS:

THAT the United States commenced this action in rem pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2428(b);

THAT after proper notice, neither the known potential claimants, nor any other third party, has filed a Claim or Answer as to Defendants Currency as required by Rule G(5) of the Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions;

THAT Entry of Default was entered by the Clerk of the Court on March 18, 2015. (Doc. 9).

THAT based upon the facts and verification set forth in the Verified Complaint, it appears by a preponderance of the evidence that there was reasonable cause for the seizure of Defendants Currency. It further appears that there is cause to issue a forfeiture order under 18 U.S.C. § 2428(b);

THAT the facts and verifications as set forth in the Verified Complaint provide probable cause and an ample basis by a preponderance of the evidence for a final Judgment and Order of Forfeiture as to Defendants Currency;
