High court rejects relation-back cutoff for innocent owner rights
Article Abstract:
The US Supreme Court ruled in A Parcel of Land, Buildings, Appurtenances and Improvements Known as 92 Buena Vista Ave on Feb 24, 1993 that the government cannot use the relation-back doctrine to cut off innocent owners' rights in civil forfeiture proceedings. The trial court had ruled that successor owners could never qualify as innocent owners under the civil forfeiture law. The majority Supreme Court opinion held that the relation-back doctrine did not apply until after a court determination that a property was forfeited to the federal government.
