KRISTA K. BUSH IN  
SUPPORT OF MOTION FOR  
FINAL ORDER OF  
FORFEITURE 
 
I, Krista K. Bush, declare and say: 
1. 
I am a duly appointed Assistant United States Attorney for the Western 
District of Washington, assigned to this case for the purpose of forfeiture. 
2. 
After reviewing the relevant investigative materials, the United States 
identified six potential claimants to the property forfeited by Defendant Shibley in this 
case. One potential claimant is an individual, M.B. The other five potential claimants are 
entities associated with Defendant Shibley: A Team Holdings, LLC; Dituri Construction, 
LLC; Eric E. Shibley, MD, PLLC; ES1, LLC; and SS1, LLC. On or about July 18, 2022, 
the United States sent direct notice of the pending forfeiture to each of the potential 
claimants at their last known addresses. Counsel for the corporate entity potential 
claimants, which have been administratively dissolved, requested the United States also 
send notice directly to counsel.

RE: 
Notice of Property Preliminarily Forfeited in 
 
 
United States v. Eric R. Shibley, Case No. CR20-174-JCC 
 
 
United States District Court for the Western District of Washington 
 
To Whom It May Concern, 
 
This letter is to notify you that the property identified in the enclosed Preliminary Order of 
Forfeiture, which was entered in the above-captioned federal prosecution, is subject to forfeiture 
to the United States.  We are sending you this notice pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal 
Procedure 32.2(b)(6) and 21 United States Code (“U.S.C.”) § 853(n)(1).  
 
Before this property is finally forfeited, the Court will adjudicate any third-party petitions that 
are filed claiming an interest in it.  The recognized bases for stating an interest in criminally 
forfeitable property are outlined at 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(6)(A) & (B).  
 
If you believe you have such an interest in this property and want to contest the final forfeiture, 
you must file a petition within 30 days of receiving this letter. See 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(2).  Your 
Case 2:20-cr-00174-JCC     Document 181     Filed 09/07/22     Page 27 of 51

 
 
 
 
petition must be signed under penalty of perjury, must state the nature and extent of your interest 
in property (including the time and circumstances under which you acquired your interest and 
any additional facts to support it), and must be filed with the Court.  See 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(2) 
& (3).  
 
We also recommend you reference the case title and number in your petition.  You can file your 
petition by sending it to: Clerk’s Office, United States District Court, Western District of 
Washington, 700 Stewart Street, Suite 2310, Seattle, WA 98101 (Telephone: (206) 370-8400). 
 
If you do file a petition, please also send a copy to me at the above address.  
 
Thank you.

RE: 
Notice of Property Preliminarily Forfeited in 
 
 
United States v. Eric R. Shibley, Case No. CR20-174-JCC 
 
 
United States District Court for the Western District of Washington 
 
To Whom It May Concern, 
 
This letter is to notify you that the property identified in the enclosed Preliminary Order of 
Forfeiture, which was entered in the above-captioned federal prosecution, is subject to forfeiture 
to the United States.  We are sending you this notice pursuant to Federal Rule of Criminal 
Procedure 32.2(b)(6) and 21 United States Code (“U.S.C.”) § 853(n)(1).  
 
Before this property is finally forfeited, the Court will adjudicate any third-party petitions that 
are filed claiming an interest in it.  The recognized bases for stating an interest in criminally 
forfeitable property are outlined at 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(6)(A) & (B).  
 
If you believe you have such an interest in this property and want to contest the final forfeiture, 
you must file a petition within 30 days of receiving this letter. See 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(2).  Your 
Case 2:20-cr-00174-JCC     Document 181     Filed 09/07/22     Page 46 of 51

 
 
 
 
petition must be signed under penalty of perjury, must state the nature and extent of your interest 
in property (including the time and circumstances under which you acquired your interest and 
any additional facts to support it), and must be filed with the Court. See 21 U.S.C. § 853(n)(2) 
& (3).  
 
We also recommend you reference the case title and number in your petition.  You can file your 
petition by sending it to: Clerk’s Office, United States District Court, Western District of 
Washington, 700 Stewart Street, Suite 2310, Seattle, WA 98101 (Telephone: (206) 370-8400). 
 
If you do file a petition, please also send a copy to me at the above address.  
 
Thank you. 
 
Sincerely,
