You can have a different law for that: "abandoned property". Essentially, you get the property just by showing up and not suing for it.

- anigbrowl 2y agoCF forfeiture laws are in theory supposed to be used against contraband and related materials. Nobody* is going to claim a suitcase with 3 bricks of cocaine and $500k whose owner the police are very anxious to locate. * Nobody with a clue. Petty criminals do sometimes turn up at police stations looking for lost property of this kind and are then surprised to be arrested.
