What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Under current law, certain property involved in the commission of a crime is

subject to seizure and forfeiture. The forfeiture law applies to all property directly

or indirectly derived from the commission of a crime. It also covers certain other

property related to the commission of a crime, including: 1) a vehicle used to

transport property used or received in committing a felony; 2) a vehicle used in

committing a crime relating to prostitution; and 3) property used in committing a

stalking offense or a criminal violation of a domestic abuse, child abuse, or

harassment restraining order or injunction.

This bill applies the forfeiture law to a vehicle used in the crime of child

enticement and any property used or to be used in the commission of the crime of

child enticement. Under this bill, if a law enforcement officer has probable cause to

believe that the vehicle or other property was used in the commission of the crime

of child enticement, he or she may seize the property without a court process.
