ORDER

This matter is before the court1 on the United States’ Motion to Dismiss, in which the
United States advises it will not pursue judicial forfeiture of the Defendant Currency. ECF No.
21. As the United States is no longer pursuing the only claim brought in this matter, the Motion
to Dismiss is hereby granted with prejudice and the seizing agency—the Drug Enforcement
Agency—is ordered to return the Defendant Currency to claimant without unnecessary delay.
IT IS SO ORDERED.
