This matter came before the Honorable Judge Carolyn K. Delaney on the United

18 States’ ex parte motion for default judgment. There was no appearance by or on behalf of
19 any other person or entity claiming an interest in the above-captioned defendant currency
20 to oppose the United States’ motion. Based on the United States’ motion and the files
21 and records of the court, THE COURT FINDS as follows:

1.

This action arose out of a Verified Complaint for Forfeiture In Rem filed

23 March 18, 2014.

The United States has shown that a complaint for forfeiture was filed; that

27 potential claimant Neal Alan Beauregard received notice of the forfeiture action; that any
