PER CURIAM:

              Yasmin Crooks appeals the district court’s order granting

the Government’s motion to strike her pleading and entering a

default judgment forfeiting property to the Government.                 We have

reviewed the record and find no reversible error.             Accordingly, we

affirm   on    the   reasoning   of   the     district   court.   See    United

States v. Crooks, No. CA-04-258-3 (E.D. Va. July 27, 2004).                  We

dispense with oral argument because the facts and legal contentions

are adequately presented in the materials before the court and

argument would not aid the decisional process.



                                                                    AFFIRMED
