1992In fact, the forfeiture here is completely unconnected to any criminal conviction and, under the mandate of section 11488.4, subdivision (i), is governed by “the provisions of the Code of Civil Procedure . . . unless otherwise inconsistent with the provisions or procedures set forth in this chapter.” (See People v. Washington, supra, 220 Cal.App.3d at p. 916.) Further, the conduct which would give rise to forfeiture under section 11470 is treated separately as a crime in another statute (i.e., § 11366), with a separate criminal punishment.

1990The current version of the *917 statute eliminates the conviction requirement, and demands proof “by a preponderance of the evidence that the property is subject to forfeiture as described in Section 11470.” (§ 11488.4, subd.
