sequestration
n. A court order in the form of a writ to (usually four) commissioners (sequestrators), ordering them to seize control of a person’s property. The order may be made against someone who is in contempt of court because he has not complied with a court order (such as an injunction). The property is detained until he complies with the order. Relevant procedural rules are set out in the schedules to the Civil Procedure Rules. |
