*   back. Further adding to the profound unfairness of the seizure process

*   the government had seized from Alvarez's bank account. Howden offered
*   Alvarez two options: settle the matter by agreeing to a 50 percent
*   forfeiture, or the money will be returned to the IRS, who might keep
*   it. Alvarez's lawyer called his bluff and got the money back after
*   a full year had elapsed. Loss of a full year's interest and $5000 in
*   legal fees were the result.
