The best thing about civil asset forfeiture is that it gives us funny case names like United States v. Article Consisting of 50,000 Cardboard Boxes More or Less

The best thing about civil asset forfeiture is that it gives us funny case names like United States v. Article Consisting of 50,000 Cardboard Boxes More or Less, Each Containing One Pair of Clacker Balls[1]. Otherwise it's terrible. I don't have a problem with convictions carrying an obligation to make financial restitution, but this isn't that. The notion of filing suit against an inanimate object is ridiculous.
