application for a forfeiture order is finalised, and until any forfeiture order that is made is satisfied;
   3. If you intend to oppose the application for a forfeiture order, or you intend to apply for an order excluding
your interest from a forfeiture order in respect of the property, you must enter an appearance in terms of the
Order. The requirements for such an appearance are set out in the Order and are also dealt with in sections
