FX 2020 Asset Forfeiture Sharing Agreement
Task Force Group (Lubbock)
Lubbock Police Department
The U.S. Department of Justice, 2018 Joint Guide to Equitable Sharing for State and Local Law
Enforcement, governs this Agreement. The State and Local Law Enforcement members (the
Participants"), of the DEA Task Force Group (Lubbock) (the"Task Force"), hereby agree to the
following terms and conditions of this Memorandum of Understanding("MOU") governing the
Task Force's equitable sharing requests and participation in the United States Department of Justice
DOJ") Equitable Sharing Program.
The following are the Task Force Participants and their contribution to the Task Force:
Lubbock Police Department/Three (3) Task Force Officers
Brownfield Police Department/One (1)Task Force Officer
Lubbock County Sheriffs Office/One (1)Task Force Officer
Participants acknowledge that equitable sharing is at the discretion of the Attorney General and not
guaranteed in any case. Participants acknowledge that sharing will not be awarded in a case if
victims have not been fully compensated. State and Local government entities can be considered
victims. Participants acknowledge that the DOJ Money Laundering and Asset Recovery Section
MLARS) will be the sole decider for 100% property requests.
Sharing percentages shall be based upon the following formula:
Agencies with one or more full time deputized Task Force Officers (TFOs) assigned to the Task
Force will receive an equitable, prearranged sharing percentage that fairly reflects the overall
agencies' investigative, financial, or administrative contributions to the task force and/or the
agencies' efforts resulting in federal forfeiture of the asset, including accounting for any
participation by a federal agency.
The maximum amount available for sharing is currently 80 percent of the asset value minus
expenses related to the seizure, and minus any percentages allotted for agencies not a part or recently
added to this Sharing Agreement who have also participated quantitatively or qualitatively in the
asset seizure. The new minimum sharing amount is$500. Sharing is not automatically 80 percent.
The actual sharing amount allocated to participating agencies may be impacted by numerous factors.
The sharing percentages awarded to State and Local Law Enforcement agencies' is based on
qualitative and quantitative contributions, and is no longer deducted from the 20% federal share.
Participants understand that if a non-MOU member receives an equitable share based upon their
contribution, then the MOU Participants' shares shall be reduced proportionately (e.g., if non-MOU
agency receives 10% based upon their contribution, then the MOU Participants' percentages shall be
based upon 90% of the maximum amount available for sharing).
Participants further understand that additional adjustments may be necessary so to ensure that DOJ
receives a minimum of 20%.
Participants further understand that the federal decision-makers, including DEA, on each equitable
sharing request retain discretion to modify percentages as deemed appropriate based on the facts and
circumstances in each case.
The additional and/or departure of Participant agencies and personnel shall not require renewal of
this Sharing Agreement. Rather, the equitable, prearranged sharing percentages shall continue to
fairly reflect Participant agencies investigative, financial, or administrative contributions to the task
force and/or the agencies' efforts resulting in federal forfeiture of the asset.
This Sharing Agreement shall remain in force upon the addition or departure of law enforcement
agencies in the DEA Task Force Group (Lubbock). This agreement shall be reviewed annually at
the time each agency completes the State and Local Task Force Agreement with DEA for the
coming Fiscal Year. Termination shall be by mutual consent in writing by all Task Force
Participants or by the withdrawal of DEA, (the latter upon 30 days advance written notice to all
current Task Force Participants)
