Introduction
On April 29, 2014, the United States filed a civil forfeiture complaint against the

27 above-captioned assets (“defendant assets”) based on their alleged involvement in
28 violations of federal law. All known potential claimants to the defendant assets have

1 signed a stipulation forfeiting their interest in the defendant assets. Additionally, public
2 notice on the official internet government forfeiture site, www.forfeiture.gov, began on
3 May 6, 2014, and ran for thirty consecutive days, as required by Rule G(4)(a)(iv)(C) of
4 Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions. A
5 Declaration of Publication was filed on June 27, 2014.
Good Cause

7

The United States has diligently pursued its forfeiture case against the defendant

8 assets. All known potential claimants have stipulated to the forfeiture of the defendant
9 assets. To date, no party has filed a claim or answer in this case. The United States
10 intends to file a Request for Final Judgment of Forfeiture along with the executed
11 stipulation once the publication time has passed.
12

For these reasons, the United States seeks to continue the deadline to file a Joint

13 Status Report from June 30, 2014 to August 29, 2014, or to another date the Court deems
14 appropriate.
