Explanation:
Foreiture is the loss or giving up of something as a penalty for wrongdoing, something similar to a Confiscation or Sequestration.
The types of Foreiture include but are not limited to:
Criminal forfeiture: An action brought as a part of the criminal prosecution of a defendant. It is an in personam (against the person) action and requires that the government indict the property used or derived from the crime along with the defendant. If the jury finds the property forfeit-able, the court issues an order of forfeiture.
Civil judicial forfeiture: An in rem (against the property) action brought in court against the property. The property is the defendant and no criminal charge against the owner is necessary.
Administrative forfeiture: An in rem action that permits the federal seizing agency to forfeit the property without judicial involvement. The authority for a seizing agency to start an administrative forfeiture action is found in the Tariff Act of 1930. Property that can be administratively forfeited is: merchandise the importation of which is prohibited, a conveyance used to import, transport, or store a controlled substance, a monetary instrument, or other property that does not exceed $500,000 in value.
Answer: regulation

Citizens are allowed to sue federal administrative agencies who are empowered to make specialized rules and regulations that would enable them to properly enforce the mandate given to them by Congress.

If those bodies refuse and it is found that the agency did not act in good faith in making the rule, the court will hear an appeal on the matter without exhaustion.
No, not unless they have reason to be suspicion
