235235 19 land, is owned or held in violation of this Section.
236236 20 (4) If the court finds that the agricultural land, or any
237237 21 portion of the agricultural land, is owned or held in
238238 22 violation of this Section, the court must enter a final
239239 23 judgment of forfeiture vesting title to the agricultural land

261261 9 (6) At any time during the forfeiture proceeding the
262262 10 Department may seek an ex parte order of seizure of the
