FOREIGN ENLISTMENT ACT 1870 - SECT 20

Regulations as to proceedings against the offender and against the ship.

20. Where any offence against this Act has been committed by any person by
reason whereof a ship, or ship and equipment, or arms and munitions of war,
has or have become liable to forfeiture, proceedings may be instituted
contemporaneously or not, as may be thought fit, against the offender in any
court having jurisdiction of the offence, and against the ship, or
ship and equipment, or arms and munitions of war, for the forfeiture in the
Court of Admiralty; but it shall not be necessary to take proceedings against
the offender because proceedings are instituted for the forfeiture, or to take
proceedings for the forfeiture because proceedings are taken against the
offender.
