ASSET FORFEITURE: WEST VIRGINIA
Take Action Today
Hi, Alan. Nice forfeiture.
Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged.

West Virginia Law Requires Strict Asset Forfeiture Reporting
Bill Link: HB4717
Effective Date: 7/1/2016
Overview: A West Virginia law imposing strict reporting requirements for all asset forfeitures in the state went into effect on July 1, 2016. Enactment of the bill takes the first step that could lead to substantive reforms, including closing a federal loophole that allows police to bypass strict state asset forfeiture laws. The law requires law enforcement agencies to report extensive details about asset forfeitures in the state including the type and value of property seized and whether someone was charged with a crime when the property was forfeited. It also requires reporting on federal equitable sharing. Under the law, the information will be compiled on a publicly available website. While the enactment of HB4717 does not reform West Virginia’s asset forfeiture laws, it sets a foundation to do so in the future.
