The court shall ensure that such hearings are not used to obtain disclosure of evidence or the identities of witnesses earlier than required by the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure or other applicable law. ``(c) Third Party' s Right to Post-Restraint Hearing.-- ``(1) IN GENERAL.--A person other than the defendant who has a legal interest in property affected by a protective order issued under subsection (a)(1) may move to modify the order on the grounds that-- ``(A) the order causes an immediate and irreparable hardship to the moving party; and ``(B) less intrusive means exist to preserve the property for the purpose of restitution. ``(2) MODIFICATION.--If, after considering any rebuttal evidence offered by the Government, the court determines that the moving party has made the showings required under paragraph (1), the court shall modify the order to mitigate the hardship, to the extent that it is possible to do so while preserving the asset for restitution. ``(3) INTERVENTION.-- ``(A) IN GENERAL.--Except as provided in subparagraph (B) or paragraph (1), a person other than a defendant has no right to intervene in the criminal case to object to the entry of any order issued under this section or otherwise to object to an order directing a defendant to pay restitution. ``(B) EXCEPTION.--If, at the conclusion of the criminal case, the court orders the defendant to use particular assets to satisfy an order of restitution (including assets that have been seized or restrained pursuant to this section) the court shall give persons other than the defendant the opportunity to object to the order on the ground that the property belonged in whole or in part to the third party and not to the defendant, as provided in section 413(n) of the Controlled Substances Act (21 U.S.C. 853(n)). ``(d) Geographic Scope of Order.-- ``(1) IN GENERAL.--A district court of the United States shall have jurisdiction to enter an order under this section without regard to the location of the property subject to the order. ``(2) OUTSIDE THE UNITED STATES.--If the property subject to an order issued under this section is located outside of the United States, the order may be transmitted to the central authority of any foreign state for service in accordance with any treaty or other international agreement. ``(e) No Effect on Other Government Action.--Nothing in this section shall be construed to preclude the Government from seeking the seizure, restraint, or forfeiture of assets under the asset forfeiture laws of the United States. ``(f) Limitation on Rights Conferred.--Nothing in this section shall be construed to create any enforceable right to have the Government seek the seizure or restraint of property for restitution. ``(g) Receivers.-- ``(1) IN GENERAL.--A court issuing an order under this section may appoint a receiver under section 1956(b)(4) to collect, marshal, and take custody, control, and possession of all assets of the defendant, wherever located, that have been restrained in accordance with this section. ``(2) DISTRIBUTION OF PROPERTY.--The receiver shall have the power to distribute property in its control to each victim identified in an order of restitution at such time, and in such manner, as the court may authorize.''.
