Per Curiam. Following full briefing and oral argument Per Curiam. ___ ______
in this appeal from a district court order dismissing plaintiffs'
civil action under 19 U.S.C. 1305 for lack of jurisdiction, we
summarily affirm the district court order, without prejudice to
any right appellants may have to institute mandamus proceedings
to require the institution of a section 1305 proceeding by the
United States Attorney, a collateral attack on the forfeiture
proceeding in a new civil action premised on federal question
jurisdiction, under 28 U.S.C. 1331, and any other administra-
tive or judicial proceeding for appropriate relief. The govern-
ment's so-called "Motion In Compliance With Order Issued On
October 6, 1995" is hereby stricken from the record. The parties
shall bear their own costs.
SO ORDERED. SO ORDERED. __ _______
