The damages recovered pursuant to this subdivision shall be deposited

confiscated by any law enforcement agency or peace officer.
   (2) In those cases where a law enforcement agency believes that
the return of the firearm, ammunition, or deadly weapon confiscated
pursuant to this subdivision, is or will be used in criminal street
gang activity or that the return of the item would be likely to
result in endangering the safety of others, the law enforcement
agency shall initiate a petition in the superior court to determine
if the item confiscated should be returned or declared a nuisance.
   (3) No firearm, ammunition, or deadly weapon shall be sold or
destroyed unless reasonable notice is given to its lawful owner if

from the date of receipt of the notice to respond to the court clerk
to confirm his or her desire for a hearing and that the failure to
respond shall result in a default order forfeiting the confiscated
firearm, ammunition, or deadly weapon as a nuisance.

hearing no later than 30 days from receipt of that request. The court

and the district attorney of the date, time, and place of the
hearing.
   (5) At the hearing, the burden of proof is upon the law
enforcement agency or peace officer to show by a preponderance of the

endangering the safety of others. All returns of firearms shall be
subject to Chapter 2 (commencing with Section 33850) of Division 11
of Title 4 of Part 6.
   (6) If the person does not request a hearing within 30 days of the
notice or the lawful owner cannot be ascertained, the law

ammunition, or deadly weapon be declared a nuisance. If the items are
declared to be a nuisance, the law enforcement agency shall dispose
of the items as provided in Sections 18000 and 18005.
