Forfeitable property may be seized whenever and wherever the property is found within this

the person in possession of the property a notice of forfeiture and seizure. If the court finds that
the forfeiture is warranted, an order transferring ownership to the seizing agency must be

entered and the property must be delivered to the seizing agency for disposition as directed by
the court. Property that has been seized for forfeiture, and is not already secured as evidence in
a criminal case, must be safely secured or stored by the agency that caused its seizure.
