Description
Appellant, Wilson G. Wheatcroft, acting on behalf of himself and the defendant res, appeals the superior court judgment ordering forfeiture of the above-referenced res to the Coconino County Attorney. *fn1 We reaffirm the longstanding rule that seizure of the res is a necessary first step for a trial court to have in rem jurisdiction in a forfeiture action. We hold that the state failed to seize the Appellant's residence for forfeiture, therefore, the superior court never obtained in rem jurisdiction over it. We further hold that the failure to give notice of pending forfeiture did not deprive the court of jurisdiction over the two vehicles.
