1Opinion of the Court

JOHNSON, Circuit Judge:

This appeal involves a civil forfeiture proceeding under 18 U.S.C.A. § 1955(d). The Government, as part of a criminal investigation of alleged gambling activities by the appellees, seized certain real property allegedly used in an illegal gambling operation pursuant to section 1955. The case presents the question of whether the civil forfeiture procedure provided in section 1955 reaches real property. The district court held that it does not, and we now reverse. We also reverse the district court’s entry of summary judgment on alternative due process grounds.
