#### 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.
