The court may make its determination ex parte if the state demonstrates that notice and an opportunity to appear would create a risk of harm to the public safety or welfare,  including the risk of physical injury or the likelihood of property damage or financial loss.

C. At least ten days before a hearing on a motion filed pursuant to this section,  the state shall file an answer or responsive motion that includes the reasons why the state is entitled to retain possession of the property.

2. The property is not reasonably required to be held for evidentiary reasons.

2023 Arizona Revised Statutes › Title 13 - Criminal Code › § 13-4311 - Judicial in rem forfeiture proceedings

13-4311.
Judicial in rem forfeiture proceedings
A. If a forfeiture is authorized by law,  it may be ordered by a court on an action in rem brought by the state pursuant to a notice of pending forfeiture or a verified complaint for forfeiture. The state may serve the complaint in the manner provided by section 13-4307 or by the Arizona rules of civil procedure.
B. Judicial in rem forfeiture proceedings are in the nature of an action in rem and are governed by the Arizona rules of civil procedure unless a different procedure is provided by law. A civil in rem action may be brought by the state in addition to or in lieu of the civil and criminal in personam forfeiture procedures set forth in sections 13-4312 and 13-4313 if the prosecutor shows by clear and convincing evidence that there is no known owner of the seized property,  diligent efforts have been made to identify the owner of the seized property and no person has asserted an ownership interest in the seized property or that,  before or after the conviction,  the defendant or alleged criminal:
1. Died.
2. No longer resides in the United States or was deported.
3. Was granted immunity or reduced punishment in exchange for testifying or assisting a law enforcement investigation or prosecution.

D. An owner of or interest holder in the property may file a claim against the property pursuant to section 13-4307,  within sixty days after the notice,  for a hearing to adjudicate the validity of the owner's or interest holder's claimed interest in the property.

2023 Arizona Revised Statutes › Title 13 - Criminal Code › § 13-4312 - Judicial in personam forfeiture proceedings

13-4312.
Judicial in personam forfeiture proceedings
A. Any complaint,  information or indictment alleging or charging one or more offenses included in section 13-2301,  subsection D,  paragraph 4 or a violation of section 13-2312,  or any other offense giving rise to forfeiture under this title,  shall set forth with reasonable particularity property that the state seeks to forfeit pursuant to this section in that action,  if any.
B. Notwithstanding subsection C of this section,  a temporary restraining order under this section may be entered on application of the state without notice or an opportunity for a hearing if the state demonstrates both that:
1. The seizure is incident to a lawful arrest for a crime or a search lawfully conducted pursuant to a search warrant and the state has probable cause to believe that the property with respect to which the order is sought would,  if a conviction occurs,  be subject to forfeiture under this title and that the subject of the arrest or search warrant is an owner of the property.
2. Provision of notice will jeopardize the availability of the property for forfeiture. A temporary restraining order expires within ten days after the date on which it is entered unless the party against whom it is entered consents to an extension for a longer period or unless the state can demonstrate the property is being held as evidence in a criminal case.
C. Notice of the entry of the restraining order and an opportunity for a hearing shall be afforded to persons known to have an interest in the property,  whether or not a temporary restraining order is entered without notice. The hearing,  however,  is limited to the issues of whether both:
1. There is a probability that the state will prevail on the issue of forfeiture and that failure to enter the order will result in the property being destroyed,  conveyed,  encumbered or further encumbered,  removed from the jurisdiction of the court,  concealed or otherwise made unavailable for forfeiture.
2. The need to preserve the availability of property through the entry of the requested order outweighs the hardship on any owner,  interest holder or defendant against whom the order is to be entered.
D. A hearing requested by any owner or interest holder concerning an order entered under this section shall be held at the earliest possible time and before the expiration of a temporary order.
2023 Arizona Revised Statutes › Title 13 - Criminal Code › § 13-4313 - Supplemental remedies

13-4313.
Supplemental remedies
A. The court shall order the forfeiture of any other property of a claimant or an in personam civil or criminal defendant up to the value of the claimant's or defendant's property that the court finds is subject to forfeiture if any of the following circumstances apply to the property:
1. It cannot be located.
2. It has been transferred or conveyed to,  sold to or deposited with a third party.
3. It has been placed beyond the jurisdiction of the court.
4. It has been substantially diminished in value by any act or omission of the defendant.

If a civil proceeding under this chapter is pending,  the action shall be filed only in the court where the civil proceeding is pending.
C. This section does not limit the right of the state to obtain any order or injunction,  receivership,  writ,  attachment,  garnishment or other remedy authorized under this title or appropriate to protect the interests of the state or available under other applicable law,  including title 44,  chapter 8,  article 1.

On the state's written application showing jurisdiction,  notice and facts sufficient to demonstrate probable cause for forfeiture,  the court shall order the property forfeited to the state.
B. After the court's disposition of all claims timely filed under this chapter,  the state has clear title to the forfeited property and the court shall so order. Title to the forfeited property and its proceeds is deemed to have vested in the state on the commission of the act or omission giving rise to the forfeiture under this title.
C. On order of the court forfeiting the subject property,  the attorney for the state may transfer good and sufficient title to any subsequent purchaser or transferee,  and the title shall be recognized by all courts,  by this state and by all departments and agencies of this state and any political subdivision. The attorney for the state may not transfer title to either:
1. An officer or employee of the agency that seized the property or a person who is related to the officer or employee by blood or marriage.
2. The attorney for the state or any individual working in the same office or any person related to the authority or individual by blood or marriage.
D. On entry of judgment for a claimant or claimants in any proceeding to forfeit property under this chapter such property or interest in property shall be returned or conveyed immediately to the claimant or claimants designated by the court. The person or seizing agency that made the seizure and the attorney for the state are not personally liable to suit or judgment on account of such seizure,  suit or prosecution unless the person,  seizing agency or attorney for the state intended to cause injury or was grossly negligent.
E. The court may award reasonable attorney fees,  expenses and damages for loss of the use of the property to any claimant who substantially prevails by an adjudication on the merits of a claim. If the court finds that reasonable cause did not exist for the seizure for forfeiture or the filing of the notice of pending forfeiture,  complaint,  information or indictment and that the seizing agency or attorney for the state intended to cause injury or was grossly negligent,  the court shall award the claimant treble costs or damages. The court must apportion the award for treble costs or damages between the agency that made the seizure and the office of the attorney for the state.
