United States District Court

Northern District of California

UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

NORTHERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

Plaintiff,

v.

ONE SPRINGFIELD XD .40 CALIBER 

HANDGUN SN: XD469962; AND OTHER 

ITEMS,

Defendant.

Case No. 18-cv-05029-JST

ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE WHY 

COMPLAINT SHOULD NOT BE 

DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE

Re: ECF No. 1

This is a judicial forfeiture action requesting a judgment of forfeiture of “One (1) 

Springfield XD .40 Caliber Handgun bearing serial number XD469962; One (1) .40 Caliber 

Magazine; Eight (8) Rounds of .40 Caliber Ammunition; and One .40 Caliber Extended 

Magazine” seized from Oscar Rene Noguera Baeza on February 15, 2018 in Concord, California. 

ECF No. 1 at 2. 

On September 4, 2018, the Court issued an order relating this case to the underlying 

criminal matter, United States of America v. Baeza, Case No. 18-cr-00354-JST. ECF No. 8. Mr. 

Baeza has entered a guilty plea, ECF No. 35, and been sentenced, ECF No. 41. On March 8, 

2019, the Court issued an order of forfeiture in the criminal case as to the same property that is the 

defendant in this judicial forfeiture action. ECF No. 42.

Because the Defendant Property has already been forfeited to the Government, it appears 

that this action is now moot. Therefore, the Court now issues an ORDER TO SHOW CAUSE 

why the Government’s claims should not be dismissed with prejudice.
