SITUATE IN THE COUNTY OF KING, STATE OF WASHINGTON.

PARCEL NUMBER: 012506902803 17 The Court, having reviewed the Motion, as well as the other pleadings and papers filed in this matter, hereby FINDS entry of a Default Judgment of Forfeiture is appropriate because: 20 1. The United States has properly served, by direct notice reasonably calculated to reach identified potential claimants and by publication, all potential claimants, as required by Rule G(4) of the Supplemental Rules for Admiralty or Maritime Claims and Asset Forfeiture Actions (“Supplemental Rules”) (see Dkt. Nos. 2, 7, 8, 9, 10); 25 2. The United States posted notice at the Defendant Real Property (see Dkt.

26 No. 6); 1 3. No person has filed a claim to the above-captioned property within the required period provided by Supplemental Rules G(4) and G(5) or otherwise appeared in || this case; 4 4. On April 28, 2025, the Clerk of Court entered default against all potential || claimants (see Dkt. No. 11); and 6 5. The factors set forth in Eitel v. McCool, 782 F.2d 1470, 1471-72 (9th Cir. 1986), weigh in favor of entry of default judgment.

8 Now, therefore, a Default Judgment of Forfeiture is ENTERED, as follows: 9 1. The above-captioned Defendant Real Property is fully and finally condemned and forfeited to the United States, pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881(a)(6) 11 (proceeds from the sale of controlled substances); 12 2. Hereinafter, no right, title, or interest in the Defendant Real Property shall || exist in any party, other than in the United States; and 14 4. The United States Department of Justice, the United States Department of || Homeland Security Investigations, and/or its agents and representatives, shall dispose of the Defendant Real Property as permitted by governing law.

17 It is so ORDERED.
