CAFRA [ 40 ]

Opinion and Order

Observing that "a comparison of CAFRA fee provisions to EAJA fee provisions

reveals that CAFRA not only broadened the class of persons entitled to

recover attorneys' fees, but also provided for a greater award," a U.S.

District Court in Alabama held that, under CAFRA's 28 U.S.C.S. § 2465(b),

claimant corporation and its owner were entitled to attorneys' fees incurred

in the underlying criminal proceeding because acquittal in that proceeding

directly resulted in dismissal of the civil forfeiture case
