1. On or about May 1, 2006, Claimant filed a claim, in the

administrative forfeiture proceedings, with the United States

Postal Inspection Service with respect to the approximately $16,000

in U.S. Currency; miscellaneous silver, gold, and platinum

collectible United States coins valued at approximately $311,720;

and the miscellaneous electronic equipment valued at approximately

$20,000 (hereafter referred to as the "defendant properties"),

which were seized on or about January 24, 2006.

2. The United States Postal Inspection Service has sent the

written notice of intent to forfeit required by 18 U.S.C. §

983(a)(1)(A) to all known interested parties. The time has expired

for any person to file a claim to the defendant properties under 18

U.S.C. § 983(a)(2)(A)-(E), and no person other than the Claimant

has filed a claim to the defendant properties as required by law in

the administrative forfeiture proceeding.

3. Under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(3)(A), the United States is

required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant

properties and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the

defendant properties are subject to forfeiture within 90 days after

a claim has been filed in the administrative forfeiture

proceedings, unless the court extends the deadline for good cause

shown or by agreement of the parties. That deadline is currently

July 28, 2006.
