Administrative forfeiture for seized property; bring forward section related to unlawful controlled substances.

HB 1506 reestablishes administrative forfeiture procedures for property (not controlled substances themselves) valued under $20,000 seized in drug-related cases under Mississippi's Uniform Controlled Substances Law. It requires law enforcement to provide specific notice via mail, publication, or an online state forfeiture site, giving owners 30 days to contest the forfeiture before property is automatically forfeited. This process directly affects property owners whose items are seized in drug enforcement actions, bypassing immediate court involvement for lower-value items. The bill amends multiple existing sections to standardize notice requirements, contest procedures, and disposal rules for forfeited property.
