United States Eleventh Circuit

Denial of motions seeking return of forfeited property, filed pro se by inmate years after he pled guilty to conspiracy to launder drug proceeds and to a forfeiture count, is affirmed over claim, which is at the heart of all of defendant's various arguments, that the district court lacked subject matter jurisdiction to enter the final order of forfeiture nearly a full year after the judgment incorporating the sentence had been entered.
