The Beginning Of The End Of Civil Asset Forfeiture

Episode # 90
Today on Legalese, we will be discussing the recent Supreme Court decision in the civil asset forfeiture case of Culley v. Marshall. This video will not be a comprehensive case breakdown, rather we will be focusing on the fact that even though this case is a prima facie loss for Due Process, the Constitution and Property Rights— When looking past the surface level, there is actually quite a lot about this case to get excited about.

A majority of the Court seem ready and willing, given the proper case, to declare that any move by the government to seize assets would require a jury trial prior to that asset seizure.
This would finally bring civil asset forfeiture fully into conformity with the Constitution’s 5th and 14th amendment’s due process clauses.

This is what I want to talk about today. Because I truly believe victory may yet be snatched from the jaws of today's defeat.
