OPINION OF THE COURT

Carl Anthony Knight appeals the District Court’s order denying his motion for return of property as well as the order denying his motion for reconsideration. The procedural history of this case and the details of Knight’s claims are well-known to the parties, set forth in the District Court’s opinion, and need not be discussed at length. In August 1999, Knight was sentenced to life imprisonment after his conviction for conspiracy to distribute and possess with intent to distribute cocaine base. In January 2004, Knight filed a motion for return of property pursuant to Fed.R.Crim.P. 41(g). The District Court denied the motion and the subsequent motion for reconsideration. Knight filed a timely notice of appeal, and we have jurisdiction under 28 U.S.C. § 1291.

Knight argues that he was entitled to notice of the administrative forfeiture of over thirty-eight thousand dollars seized during the investigation which led to his conviction. He states that the government contended at trial that the money was his. He asserts that a government witness, Victor Calderone-Rodriguez, testified that Knight gave him the money to buy cocaine. However, Knight testified at trial that he never gave Calderone-Rodriguez any money for cocaine. SuppApp. at 61. Even if Knight was entitled to notice, the error was harmless. Because the money was used to purchase cocaine, Knight could not have a property interest in the money. Moneys furnished in exchange for a controlled substance are “subject to forfeiture to the United States and no property right shall exist in them.” 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(6). We agree with the District *236 Court that Knight has not shown that he was entitled to notice of the forfeiture.

For the above reasons, as well as those set forth by the District Court, we will affirm the District Court’s orders.
