1Opinion of the Court
HODGES, Justice. *
Defendant, Loretta Allen, appeals from the trial court judgment which declared the residence she owned with her husband and certain other property to be a class 1 public nuisance and ordered their forfeiture. The People cross-appeal from that part of the judgment which awarded all proceeds to the general fund of the State of Colorado rather than to the seizing agency. We affirm.
Defendant first claims there is a right to trial by jury of factual issues in forfeiture actions, and that the trial court erred in denying her jury demand. We disagree.
