Commonwealth Consolidated Acts Commonwealth Consolidated Acts(1) Property is forfeited to the Commonwealth at the end of the period applying under subsection (3) if:
(a) a person is convicted of a * serious offence; and
(b) either:
(i) at the end of that period, the property is covered by a * restraining order under section 17 or 18 against the person that relates to the offence; or
(ii) the property was covered by such a restraining order against the person, but the order was revoked under section 44 or the property was excluded from the order under that section; and
(c) the property is not subject to an order under section 94 excluding the property from forfeiture under this Part.
(2) It does not matter whether:
(a) the * restraining order was made before or after the person's conviction of the * serious offence; or
(b) immediately before forfeiture, the property is the * person's property or another person's property.
(3) The period at the end of which the property is forfeited is:
(a) the 6 month period starting on the * conviction day; or
(b) if an * extension order is in force at the end of that period--the extended period relating to that extension order.
(4) This section does not apply if the person is taken to have been convicted of the offence because the person * absconded in connection with the offence.
(5) A * restraining order in relation to a * related offence with which the person has been charged, or is proposed to be charged, is taken, for the purposes of this section, to be a restraining order in relation to the offence of which the person was convicted.
(6) If:
(a) under section 44, a * restraining order that covered particular property is revoked, or particular property is excluded from a restraining order; and
(b) the security referred to in paragraph 44(1)(e), or the undertaking referred to in paragraph 44(2)(e), in connection with the revocation or exclusion is still in force;
the property is taken, for the purposes of this section, to be covered by the restraining order.
