the defendant currency under 18 U.S.C. § 983(a)(2)(A)-(E), and no

person, other than the Claimants, has filed a claim to the

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

required to file a complaint for forfeiture against the defendant

currency and/or to obtain an indictment alleging that the defendant

the parties. That deadline is currently December 8, 2006.

against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an indictment

alleging that the defendant currency is subject to forfeiture. 

5. Accordingly, the parties agree that the deadline by which

the United States shall be required to file a complaint for

forfeiture against the defendant currency and/or to obtain an 

indictment alleging that the defendant currency is subject to

forfeiture shall be extended to March 8, 2007.
