Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit May 10, 1990, No. 89-15409 (United States v. Lot 111-B, Tax Map Key 4-4-03-71(4))

PER CURIAM:

Richard Stage appeals the district court’s denial of his claim for return of property forfeited pursuant to 21 U.S.C. § 881. The district court held that Stage was a “nominal owner” lacking standing to challenge the forfeiture. Alternatively, the court held that Stage did not qualify as an “innocent owner.” We affirm.
