摘要
Supplemental § 853(n) Petition · Himalaya Group of Entities
This 15-page document, dated October 22, 2025, is a supplemental third-party petition under 21 U.S.C. § 853(n) and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.2(c) filed by a group of related entities to amend the Preliminary Order of Forfeiture entered against Defendant Miles Guo (case-doc-720) in United States v. Miles Guo, S3 23 Cr. 118 (AT).
Petitioning Entities
The supplemental petition is filed by six related corporate petitioners:
- Himalaya International Financial Group, Ltd.
- Himalaya International Reserves, Ltd.
- Himalaya International Clearing, Ltd.
- Himalaya Currency Clearing Pty Ltd.
- Hamilton Capital Holding, Ltd.
- Hamilton Opportunity Fund SPC
Collectively the "Petitioners."
Procedural Posture
The Petitioners previously filed an ancillary petition on April 7, 2025 (ECF No. 672, the "HEX Wang Ancillary Petition") in connection with the forfeiture order entered against co-defendant Yvette Wang. This supplemental petition extends the same claim of interest to the broader property identified in the Guo Preliminary Order of Forfeiture.
Property at Issue
The petition asserts interests in property the U.S. Government seeks to forfeit, which includes substantially the same property as the prior HEX Wang Ancillary Petition. The petition argues that these assets belong to the Petitioners — operating entities of the Himalaya Exchange ecosystem — rather than to Mr. Guo personally.
Statutory Bases
The petition proceeds under 21 U.S.C. § 853(n) and Federal Rule of Criminal Procedure 32.2(c).
