The Institute for Justice took this case

More info about this case here: http://www.ij.org/miforf

Do you have a business?

Are you making your bank deposits in a way that is pleasing to the the Federal government?

If not, apparently the Feds feel they can take your bank account and keep everything in it. You bank will cooperate with them without question.

No charges and certainly no trial. They just "think" you "may" have committed a crime and that's good enough.

It's called "civil forfeiture."

Is this how government criminals plan to pay off the deficit?

Apparently.

On September 25, 2013, the Institute for Justice stepped up to help these good people fight back.
