4racketeering shall:

3preside over the trial of the person or persons charged with
4narcotics racketeering as defined in Section 4 of this Act or
5violating Section 3 of the Drug Paraphernalia Control Act
6shall first determine whether there is probable cause to
7believe that the person or persons so charged has committed
8the offense of narcotics racketeering as defined in Section 4
9of this Act or a violation of Section 3 of the Drug
10Paraphernalia Control Act and whether the property or property
11interest is subject to forfeiture pursuant to this Act.
12    In order to make such a determination, prior to entering
13any such order, the court shall conduct a hearing without a
14jury, wherein the People shall establish that there is: (i)
15probable cause that the person or persons so charged have
16committed the offense of narcotics racketeering or violating
17Section 3 of the Drug Paraphernalia Control Act and (ii)
18probable cause that any property or property interest may be
19subject to forfeiture pursuant to this Act. Such hearing may
20be conducted simultaneously with a preliminary hearing, if the
21prosecution is commenced by information or complaint, or by
22motion of the People, at any stage in the proceedings. The
23court may accept a finding of probable cause at a preliminary
24hearing following the filing of an information charging the
25offense of narcotics racketeering as defined in Section 4 of
26this Act or the return of an indictment by a grand jury

2Section 4 of this Act or after a charge is filed for violating
3Section 3 of the Drug Paraphernalia Control Act as sufficient
4evidence of probable cause as provided in item (i) above.
5    Upon such a finding, the circuit court shall enter such
6restraining order, injunction or prohibition, or shall take
7such other action in connection with any such property or
8property interest subject to forfeiture under this Act, as is
9necessary to insure that such property is not removed from the
10jurisdiction of the court, concealed, destroyed or otherwise
11disposed of by the owner of that property or property interest
12prior to a forfeiture hearing under subsection (b) of this
13Section. The Attorney General or State's Attorney shall file a
14certified copy of such restraining order, injunction or other
15prohibition with the recorder of deeds or registrar of titles
16of each county where any such property of the defendant may be
17located. No such injunction, restraining order or other
18prohibition shall affect the rights of any bona fide
19purchaser, mortgagee, judgment creditor or other lien holder
20arising prior to the date of such filing.
21    The court may, at any time, upon verified petition by the
22defendant, conduct a hearing to release all or portions of any
23such property or interest which the court previously
24determined to be subject to forfeiture or subject to any
25restraining order, injunction, or prohibition or other action.
26The court may release such property to the defendant for good

8conditions as the court shall deem proper. Any property or
9property interest that has been the subject of an entered
10restraining order, injunction or prohibition or any other
11action filed under subsection (c) shall be forfeited unless
12the claimant can show by a preponderance of the evidence that
13the property or property interest has not been acquired or
14maintained as a result of narcotics racketeering or has not
15been used to facilitate narcotics racketeering.
16    (f) The Attorney General or his designee is authorized to
17sell all property forfeited and seized pursuant to this Act,
18unless such property is required by law to be destroyed or is
19harmful to the public, and, after the deduction of all
20requisite expenses of administration and sale, shall
