SB683,35,9 (3) If marijuana or medical marijuana on which the tax has been paid is seized as provided under sub. (1), it shall be returned to the true owner if ownership can be ascertained and the owner or the owner's agent is not involved in the violation resulting in the seizure. If the ownership cannot be ascertained or if the owner or the owner's agent was guilty of the violation that resulted in the seizure of the marijuana or medical marijuana, it may be sold or otherwise disposed of as provided in sub. (2).

SB683,36,5 (4) If tangible personal property other than marijuana or medical marijuana is seized as provided under sub. (1), the commission shall advertise the tangible personal property for sale by publication of a class 2 notice under ch. 985. If no person claiming a lien on, or ownership of, the property has notified the commission of the person's claim within 10 days after last insertion of the notice, the commission shall sell the property. If a sale is not practical, the commission may destroy the property. If a person claiming a lien on, or ownership of, the property notifies the commission within the time prescribed in this subsection, the commission may apply to the circuit court in the county where the property was seized for an order directing disposition of the property or the proceeds from the sale of the property. If the court orders the property to be sold, all liens, if any, may be transferred from the property to the sale proceeds. Neither the property seized nor the proceeds from the sale shall be turned over to any claimant of lien or ownership unless the claimant first establishes that the property was not used in connection with any violation under this subchapter or s. 73.17 or 73.18 or that, if so used, it was done without the claimant's knowledge or consent and without the claimant's knowledge of facts that should have given the claimant reason to believe it would be put to such use. If no claim of lien or ownership is established as provided under this subsection, the property may be ordered destroyed. In case of a sale, the net proceeds after deducting costs, expenses, and established claims shall be paid into the medical marijuana fund.
