PRELIMINARY ORDER OF FORFEITURE

DANA L. CHRISTENSEN, Chief District Judge.

THIS matter comes before the Court on the United States' Motion for Preliminary Order of Forfeiture. Defendant Gerald Eugene Kennedy appeared before the Court on October 30, 2018, and entered a plea of guilty to count II of the indictment. He also admitted the forfeiture allegation. Kennedy's plea provides a factual basis and cause to issue an order of forfeiture, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 853(a)(1) and (2).

IT IS ORDERED:

THAT Defendant Kennedy's interest in the following property is forfeited to the United States in accordance with 21 U.S.C. § 853(a)(1) and (2):

THAT the Secret Service, United States Marshal's Service, or a designated sub-custodian, is directed to seize the property subject to forfeiture and further to make a return as provided by law;

THAT the United States will provide written notice to all third parties asserting a legal interest in any of the above-described property and will post on an official government internet site (www.forfeiture.gov) for at least 30 consecutive days as required by Rule G(4)(a)(iv)(C) of the Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions, of the Court's preliminary order and the United States' intent to dispose of the property in such manner as the Attorney General or Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security may direct, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 982(b)(1) and 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(1), and to make its return to this Court that such action has been completed; and

THAT upon adjudication of all third-party interests, if any, the Court will enter a final order of forfeiture.
