NOTICE IS HEREBY GIVEN that the property described above has been seized and is pending forfeiture to the Kansas Highway Patrol pursuant to the Kansas Standard Asset Seizure and Forfeiture Act (the Act), K.S.A. 60-4101 et seq. If you have not previously received a Notice of Seizure for Forfeiture, this is notice pursuant to the Act. The property was seized by the Kansas Highway Patrol on March 11, 2025, on I-70 at mile marker 188 in Shawnee County, Kansas. The value of the property has been set at $ 34,909.00.
The conduct giving rise to forfeiture and/or the violation of law is K.S.A. 60-4104(c),(t), and (v), violations involving theft, forgery, and criminal use of a financial card. The property represents the proceeds of, and/or was intended to be used in a future exchange for, and/or was used or intended to be used to facilitate theft, forgery, and criminal use of a financial card, all act(s) giving rise to the property's forfeiture.
Should you believe you have a true ownership interest in the seized property, you may do any of the following: (1) file a verified claim, or a verified Request for Recognition of Exemption (generally used by financial institutions), sending copies to the Plaintiff's Attorney and the Seizing Agency; or (2) do nothing.
You may also wish to consult with an attorney before deciding what is best for you. However, if no valid claim is timely mailed within sixty (60) days of your service of this Notice, your interest in the seized property, if any will be forfeited. Any claim shall comply with the requirements of true ownership documentation, as set out in K.S.A. 60-4111.
You should be aware that it is a crime to falsely allege an ownership interest in property or to provide other false information in a claim. Further, pursuant to K.S.A. 60-4116(f), any claimant who fails to establish that a substantial portion of the claimant's interest is exempt from forfeiture may be responsible to pay the reasonable cost, expenses, and attorney fees of other claimants and the State.
