68 Second exception—if a joint owner dies before the order was made

(1) Despite section 66, if a person: (a) was, immediately before his or her death, the joint owner of property specified in the *forfeiture order; but (b) died before the order was made, but: (i) after the *responsible authority applied for the order; or (ii) while a *restraining order covering the property was in force; that property is taken to have vested in the Commonwealth immediately before the person’s death. (2) Any such *restraining order is also taken to have continued to apply to the property as if the person had not died.
