The Court, having reviewed the United States' Motion as well as the other pleadings and papers filed in this matter, hereby FINDS entry of a Final Order of Forfeiture is appropriate because:
• On July 11, 2014, the Court entered Preliminary Orders of Forfeiture finding the above-identified property forfeitable pursuant to 18 U.S.C. § 2323(b) and forfeiting the Defendant's interest in it (Dkt. Nos. 185 & 186);
• Thereafter, the United States published notice of the pending forfeitures as required by 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(1) and Fed. R. Crim. P. 32.2(b)(6)(C) (Dkt. No. 285); and,
• The time for filing third-party petitions has expired, and none were filed.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE COURT ORDERS:
1. No right, title, or interest in the above-identified property exists in any party other than the United States;
2. The above-identified property is fully and finally condemned and forfeited, in its entirety, to the United States; and,
3. The Department of Homeland Security, and/or its representatives, are authorized to dispose of the above-identified property as permitted by governing law.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
