UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT

FOR THE EASTERN DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA

UNITED STATES OF AMERICA,

 Plaintiff, 

 v. 

MARTIN ROJAS-CUAMBA

 Defendant.

1:12-cr-0419-LJO-SKO-1

ORDER ON GOVERNMENT’S 

MOTION TO DISMISS THIRD PARTY 

CLAIM (DOC. 60)

The Court has received and reviewed the Government’s motion to dismiss the third party claim 

of Petitioner Cruz Rojas as untimely (Document 60). The Court has also received and reviewed the 

Third Party Claimant’s Opposition papers (Document 63).

Nothing in the opposition documents refutes anything in the motion to dismiss, which the Court 

incorporates by reference herein. The bases for Third Party Claimant’s request to be excused from the 

filing of the admittedly late claim include that:

1. The claim is only 3 days late;

2. Even though the copy of the Preliminary Order of Seizure was timely served on the Claimant 

and it contained the proper and correct information, sometime earlier the Claimant had been told 

that the claim would be adjudicated in the Southern District of California.

Nowhere in the submitted papers is excusable neglect demonstrated. The Motion to Dismiss is 

GRANTED.

IT IS SO ORDERED.

Dated: April 8, 2015 /s/ Lawrence J. O’Neill
