Actually it should be after a conviction and ALL legal appeals in court are exhausted and there is no doubt at all about the defendant's guilt.
That's to far IMO. We don't let people stay out of prison until all appeals are exhausted, and your personal freedom is more important that personal property. If they are later exonerated then they can file a 1983 for what was taken (or should be able to).

Even that is too short sighted. There's currently no balance between what an innocent person in prison loses and the prosecutor that puts him there loses through misconduct.
