TL;DR Summary

The Supreme Court is divided on whether to make it easier for individuals whose property has been seized by the police to argue for its prompt return. Some justices expressed concerns about the abuse of civil asset forfeiture, while others questioned whether the available procedures in the cases before them were sufficient. The cases involve innocent owners whose vehicles were seized due to criminal activity by others. The court's ruling may have implications for the due process rights of individuals and the potential for abuse in civil asset forfeiture cases.
