Civil Forfeiture

Civil Forfeiture

The Civil Forfeiture office administers the Unlawful Property Forfeiture Act. The overall purpose of the Act and the program are to deter and disrupt unlawful activities, and to either compensate victims or reinvest forfeited funds to support other community-based wellness programs. It is primarily a crime prevention initiative and supports the government’s alcohol harm reduction strategy.
