(b) A person against whom a judgment has been rendered under this subchapter is not eligible to exempt any property, of whatever kind, from process to levy or process to execute on the judgment.
(c) Any asset sought to satisfy a judgment under this subchapter that is named in a forfeiture action or has been seized for forfeiture by any Virgin Islands or federal agency may not be used to satisfy a judgment unless and until the asset has been released following the conclusion of the forfeiture action or released by the agency that seized the asset.
