ORDER

Defendant United States filed a motion to sell seized property (Dkt. 46). Plaintiffs opposed

the motion, contending that the minimum bids proposed by the United States were insufficient. The

Court granted the parties 15 days to brief the issue of whether any legal or statutory restrictions

apply to the sale price of the property (Dkt. 49). The parties then filed a stipulation agreeing to

reserve prices for the property (Dkt. 51). In accordance with the stipulation, and for good cause

shown, 

IT IS HEREBY ORDERED granting Defendant United States of America’s Motion for an

Order Permitting Sale of Seized Property (Dkt. 46), pursuant to the following terms of the parties’

stipulation (Dkt. 51):

(1) The IRS may proceed to sell at public auction, after the proper notice and advertising

according to law and regulation, the vehicles identified in Appendix A, attached. 

(2) Any vehicle that does not sell for at least the reserve price set forth in Appendix A

shall be stored by the IRS until further Order or the written agreement of the parties

to modify the reserve price.
