The federal criminal forfeiture ­statute, 21 U.S.C. Section 853(a), provides that any person convicted of a ­federal drug crime must forfeit "any property ­constituting, or derived from, any proceeds the person obtained, ­directly or indirectly, as the result of such ­violation." In Honeycutt v. United States, the U.S. Supreme Court will determine the reach of that statute in drug conspiracy cases. Specifically, the court will examine whether the statute requires all members of the conspiracy to be held jointly and severally ­liable for the forfeiture of all reasonably foreseeable proceeds of the conspiracy—even a co-conspirator that never personally ­"obtained" any proceeds.
