Requesting the return of property does not automatically ensure its return, nor does it imply that it will be returned immediately. Property that is currently being used as evidence, involved in an ongoing court case, part of an active police investigation, or subject to court-ordered forfeiture will remain in custody until all relevant criminal or civil cases, as well as any investigations, have been concluded. By completing this form, you will initiate an inquiry that allows us to begin the process of investigating the return of the property to the rightful owner, family, or authorized requestor.
