UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, v. GINO VIZZARI,


ORDER

VERNON S. BRODERICK, United States District Judge:

The United States Probation Office for the Southern District of New York (“Probation”) seized $13, 477 from defendant Gino Vizzari upon his arrest on July 11, 2019, as evidence of a violation of his supervised release in case number 06-Cr-026. The funds are currently being held by the Probation Office. I presided over Mr. Vizzari's violation proceedings as well as the captioned criminal matter. I have been informed that Probation does not independently have the authority to seize or forfeit the funds.

It is therefore, ORDERED that Probation transfer the seized currency to the Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) for commencement of administrative forfeiture proceedings in accordance with 18 U.S.C. § 983(a) and Rule G of the Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions.

SO ORDERED.
