Bill > HB2695

This bill amends existing Arizona laws to expand the property that can be subject to forfeiture after a criminal conviction. Specifically, it allows the forfeiture of "substitute assets" - property that is not directly connected to the crime but can be forfeited to satisfy a forfeiture judgment. The bill also modifies provisions regarding the post-deprivation hearing process, including allowing the court to deny the return of seized property if another person has filed a claim and is the victim of the alleged crime. Overall, the bill aims to enhance the state's ability to pursue asset forfeiture in criminal cases.
