It could be considered legal as they would considered evidence of a crime or a forfeiture of the property that was used in a crime. That said, you definitely should fight it, because you should be considered an innocent third party and therefore you could fight it. However, you must deal with this immediately or else you waive your rights. Give me a call as I am in your area.
