REQUEST AND ORDER TO 

EXTEND DEADLINE TO FILE 

JOINT STATUS REPORT

The United States requests that the Court continue the deadline to file a Joint 

Status Report (“JSR”) from July 3, 2014 to October 2, 2014. For the reasons set forth 

below, there is good cause to continue the deadline to file a JSR.

Introduction

On April 30, 2014, the United States filed a civil forfeiture complaint against the 

above-captioned currency (“Defendant Currency”) based on its alleged involvement in 

federal drug law violations. 

All known potential claimants to the defendant properties were served in a manner 

consistent with Dusenbery v. United States, 534 U.S. 161, 168 (2002) and the applicable 

statutory authority. Additionally, public notice on the official internet government 

forfeiture site, www.forfeiture.gov, began on May 13, 2014, and ran for thirty consecutive

days, as required by Rule G(4)(a)(iv)(C) of Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime 

Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions. A Declaration of Publication was filed on July 1, 

2014.

On June 6, 2014, Beverly Faille (“Faille”) filed a claim to the Defendant Currency. 

No other party has entered this case. 

The United States has attempted to contact Faille to resolve this case and/or file a 

JSR. To date, however, the United States has been unsuccessful. Faille is preceding pro 

se, lives in Massachusetts, and has not provided a telephone number or email address. 

The United States therefore requests an extension of 90 days, until October 2, 2014, to 

file a JSR.

Good Cause

For these reasons stated herein, the United States believes there is good cause to 

continue the deadline to file a JSR to October 2, 2014 (or to another date the Court deems 

appropriate).
