Justice Manual § 9-111.130
Pre-Indictment and Other Forfeiture Coordination
In criminal forfeitures, the United States Attorney will ensure proper and timely pre-indictment coordination with the United States Marshals Service to prepare for and assess the property management and financial needs of those assets subject to criminal forfeiture. The United States Attorney should consult with the United States Marshals Service prior to the submission of any proposed orders to a court that impose any restraint, seizure, property management, or financial management requirements relating to any property that is or will be in the Marshals Service's custody.
Further guidance on pre-seizure activity is available in Chapter 1 of the Asset Forfeiture Policy Manual
