Statute 179 1233

1. The State, county or city shall sell any property forfeited pursuant to NRS 179.1219 or 179.1229 as soon as commercially feasible. Except as otherwise provided in subsection 2, the proceeds from such a sale must be used first for payment of all proper expenses of any proceedings for the forfeiture and sale, including, without limitation, any expenses for the seizure and maintenance of the property, advertising and court costs. The balance of the proceeds, if any, must be deposited in the Account for the Technological Crime Advisory Board created pursuant to NRS 205A.090. 2. If the property forfeited is encumbered by a bona fide security interest and the secured party shows that the secured party did not consent or have knowledge of the violation causing the forfeiture, the State, county or city shall pay the existing balance or return the property to the secured party.
