AI Summary
This bill amends existing law to revise which property is subject to civil forfeiture and under what conditions. It establishes a right of replevin (return of seized property) upon court order, requires certain findings by the court before forfeiture, removes payment of certain costs, provides for disposition of the seized property, and establishes reporting requirements for law enforcement agencies. The bill expands the types of property that can be forfeited, but also adds new protections for property owners, such as requiring the court to determine if the forfeiture is proportionate to the alleged crime. It also requires detailed reporting on forfeiture activities by law enforcement.
