| 50:50:1.0.1.2.6.3.1.1 | 50 | Wildlife and Fisheries | I | B | 12 | PART 12—SEIZURE AND FORFEITURE PROCEDURES | C | Subpart C—Forfeiture Proceedings | 12.31 | § 12.31 What are the basic types of forfeiture proceedings? | FWS | 16 U.S.C. 470aa et seq., 470aaa et seq., 668 et seq., 668dd et seq., 703 et seq., 718a et seq., 742j-l, 1361 et seq., 1531 et seq., 2401 et seq., 3371 et seq., 4201 et seq., and 5301 et seq.; 18 U.S.C. 42 and 981 et seq.; 19 U.S.C. 1602-1624; 28 U.S.C. 2465; 42 U.S.C. 1996; and E.O. 13751, 81 FR 88609, amending E.O. 13112, 64 FR 6183. | 88 FR 47818, July 25, 2023, unless otherwise noted. | (a) Property seized for violations of the laws identified in § 12.2 and subject to forfeiture may be forfeited, depending upon the nature of the property and the law involved, through criminal forfeiture proceedings, civil judicial procedures, or civil administrative procedures. (b) The process used also may be determined in certain circumstances by the actions of an interested party. For example, a person claiming property seized in an administrative civil forfeiture proceeding under a civil forfeiture statute may choose to file a claim after the seizure rather than to pursue administrative relief through a petition for remission of forfeiture. (c) A claim that is timely and contains the information required by § 12.36 will terminate the administrative proceeding and will cause the Service, through the Solicitor, to refer the claim to the U.S. Department of Justice with the request that a judicial forfeiture action be instituted in Federal court. |
