US SUPREME COURT RULES ON EXCESSIVE ASSET FORFEITURE

“A U.S. Supreme Court ruling on excessive fees threatens a practice that has netted Texas law enforcement agencies nearly half a billion dollars in property seizures over a decade.

The justices unanimously agreed Feb. 20 that a constitutional ban on excessive fines, which could include some forfeitures of property believed to be used in criminal activity, applies to all levels of government. Experts said the ruling opens the door for other courts to determine whether fees or seizures are excessive in comparison to the crime.”   Click on the star to see the story – by Samantha Ketterer
