UNITED STATES DISTRICT COURT
FOR THE CENTRAL DISTRICT OF CALIFORNIA
COURT CASE NUMBER: CR 20-579-SVW; NOTICE OF
FORFEITURE

Notice is hereby given that on September 03, 2021, in the case of U.S. v. Edvard
Paronyan, Court Case Number CR 20-579-SVW, the United States District Court for the
Central District of California entered an Order condemning and forfeiting the following

Real Property at 74203 Anastacia Lane, Palm Desert, California 92211
(21-FBl-005231) Parcel # 694-331-008.

The custodian of the property is the United States Marshals Service located at 350
W. 1st Street, Suite 3001, Los Angeles, CA 90012.

The United States hereby gives notice of its intent to dispose of the forfeited
property in such manner as the United States Attorney General may direct. Any person,
other than the defendant(s) in this case, claiming interest in the forfeited property must file
an ancillary petition within 60 days of the first date of publication (September 14, 2021) of
this Notice on this official government internet web site, pursuant to Rule 32.2 of the
Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure and 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(1). The ancillary petition

property and any additional facts supporting the petitioner's claim and the relief sought,

Following the Court’s disposition of all ancillary petitions filed, or if no such petitions
are filed, following the expiration of the period specified above for the filing of such
ancillary petitions, the United States shall have clear title to the property and may warrant
good title to any subsequent purchaser or transferee.
