Equitable Sharing Request Form
General Instructions
Transfer of federally forfeited property is governed by the Department of Justice Attorney General's
Guidelines on Seized and Forfeited Property (Guidelines).
Requesting state or local law enforcement agency (Agency) head or designee must complete the DAG-71.
(Note: Incomplete or inaccurate information is the most common cause of delay in processing.)
A separate DAG-71 must be completed for each asset requested.
The deadline for submitting the DAG-71 to the federal investigative agency processing the forfeiture (federal
agency) is 45 days following the date of forfeiture. A late waiver request must be included with DAG-71s
submitted after the deadline. Acceptance of the late submission is at the discretion of the federal agency.
When the Agency requests tangible property in lieu of proceeds, the Agency must return costs and the appropriate
federal equitable share to the United States. If the Agency is unable to pay the costs and federal share, the
property will be liquidated and the proceeds distributed proportionally.
DAG-71
Asset Information
This section will be pre-populated with information related to the asset being requested.
Requesting State or Local Agency
Provide all information requested. Contact Person is the person who will have specific information regarding
the Agency’s contribution to the seizure and forfeiture of the requested asset.
Request Type
You must select either "Item" (if requesting the asset) or "Cash/Proceeds" (if requesting a percentage of the
asset).
Requesting Agency Contribution & Detailed Narrative
This section of the DAG-71 form will be used to evaluate the Agency’s contributions to the seizure and forfeiture
of the requested asset. Accurately report all workhours contributed to the seizure and forfeiture of the asset, not
the entire investigation. The narrative section must include any qualitative factors that serve to support a sharing
award. For example, if the Agency contributed unique or indispensable support, the activities must be detailed in
the narrative section. If sharing percentages are pre-defined in a task force agreement, the agreement must be
included with the submission.
Late Submission Waiver (if applicable)
Indicate specific reasons as to why the DAG-71 is being submitted more than 45 days following the date of
forfeiture. Acceptance of late submissions is at the discretion of the federal agency.
Certification by State or Local Requesting Agency
Agency head or his/her designee must certify that the information provided in the above sections is true and
accurate.
