STATE OF MICHIGAN
COURT OF APPEALS
PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF MICHIGAN,
UNPUBLISHED
November 4, 1997
Plaintiff-Appellee,
v
No. 193852
Calhoun Circuit Court
LC No. 95-001633 FH
WILSE JACKSON,
Defendant-Appellant.
Before: Holbrook, Jr., P.J., and Michael J. Kelly and Gribbs, JJ.
MEMORANDUM.
In a jury trial, defendant was convicted of possession of cocaine under 25 grams. He contends
here, as he did in the trial court, that his conviction violates his right to be free from double jeopardy
because he was previously subjected to a civil forfeiture based on the same conduct. This appeal is
being decided without oral argument pursuant to MCR 7.214(E).
Whether under the state or federal Constitution, defendant’s right to be free from double
jeopardy is not infringed by imposition of a civil forfeiture and criminal prosecution based on the same
conduct. People v Acoff, 220 Mich App 396, 398; ___ NW2d ___ (1996); United States v
Ursery, 518 US ___; 116 S Ct 2135; 135 L Ed 2d 549 (1996).
Affirmed.
/s/ Donald E. Holbrook, Jr.
/s/ Michael J. Kelly
/s/ Roman S. Gribbs
