A Texas judge cleared a hurdle for a constitutional class action lawsuit alleging law enforcement in one of the nation's largest counties regularly seize cash and cars from people never convicted of a crime.

"Harris County has one of the most abusive forfeiture programs in the country," said attorney Wesley Hottot of the Institute of Justice, the nonprofit libertarian law firm arguing the case.

"They have police out specifically looking for cash, they have police out specifically looking for cars that can be seized," he added. "And wouldn't you know it, they find cash and they find cars to seize."
