IN THE UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

v.

APPROXIMATELY $142,020.00 IN U.S. 

CURRENCY,

Defendant.

2:14-CV-02009-GEB-KJN

STIPULATION AND ORDER TO 

EXTEND DEADLINE TO FILE JOINT 

STATUS REPORT 

The United States and claimant Newton Mancia, through undersigned counsel, 

stipulate and request the Court continue the deadline to file a Joint Status Report from 

November 10, 2014 to December 8, 2014. 

On August 29, 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. The United States has provided mail service to all known 

potential claimants and is attempting personal service on several of those who received 

mail notice. Additionally, public notice on the official internet government forfeiture site, 

www.forfeiture.gov, began on September 4, 2014, and ran for 30 consecutive days. A 

Declaration of Publication was filed on October 29, 2014.

On October 1, 2014, Newton Mancia filed a claim alleging an interest in the 

defendant currency and filed an answer to the complaint on October 15, 2014. No other 

party has entered this case. 

Upon receipt of the personal service Process Receipt and Returns from the U.S. 

Marshals Service, the United States intends on obtaining clerk’s defaults against the 

potential claimants who have not filed claims in this action. In light this, the parties 

request a brief continuance of the deadline to file a Joint Status Report from November 10, 

2014 to December 8, 2014, or to another date the Court deems appropriate.
