Open in Lexace · Ask the AI about this section
1. All right, title and interest in
property subject to forfeiture vests in the plaintiff:
(a) In the case of property used or intended for
use to facilitate the commission or attempted commission of any felony, when
the property is so used or intended for such use.
(b) In the case of property otherwise subject to
forfeiture, when the event giving rise to the forfeiture occurs.
(c) In the case of proceeds, when they become
proceeds.
2. Any transfer of property which occurs
after title to the property has become vested in the plaintiff, and before the
termination of the proceeding for forfeiture, is void as against the plaintiff,
unless the person to whom the transfer is made is a good faith purchaser for
value. If such a transfer is made, the purchaser must, in the proceeding for
forfeiture, establish by a preponderance of the evidence that the purchaser
has:
(a) An interest of record in the property;
(b) Given fair value for the interest; and
(c) Acquired the interest without notice of the
proceeding or the facts giving rise to the proceeding.
If the
purchaser acquires the interest after the seizure of the property by the
plaintiff, it is conclusively presumed that the interest has been acquired with
notice of the proceeding.
