An Act relative to civil asset forfeiture

This bill limits civil asset forfeiture in drug-related cases by setting a $250 threshold: property worth less than $250 cannot be seized. It requires law enforcement to prove forfeiture claims by "clear and convincing evidence" in court, shifting the burden from property owners. Forfeited funds must be split equally - 50% into a substance abuse treatment fund and 50% into a community fund for opioid-affected areas. Annual public reports detailing seized assets and fund usage are mandated for law enforcement and prosecutors.
