1Opinion of the Court
BAUER, Circuit Judge.
Claimants Gregory and Holly Accardi bring this appeal to challenge the forfeiture of 47 West 644 Route 38, Maple Park, Illinois (hereinafter the “Property”). The Aceardis argue that the district court should have dismissed the forfeiture action because the government’s seizure of the Property violated the due process principles announced in United States v. James Daniel Good Real Property, 510 U.S. 43, 114 S.Ct. 492, 126 L.Ed.2d 490 (1993). They also argue that the forfeiture constituted disproportionate punishment in violation of the Eighth Amendment. We affirm.
