Opinion

BEST, P. J.—

Introduction

These consolidated appeals present the novel issue of whether a forfeiture proceeding must be dismissed when the People fail to file a petition of forfeiture within 30 days after a claim is filed as required by Health and Safety Code section 11488.4, subdivision (j). We conclude the People’s failure to comply with section 11488.4, subdivision (j)’s 30-day limitation does not invalidate the subsequent proceedings so long as the petition of forfeiture is filed within the 1-year statute of limitations of section 11448.4, subdivision (a).
