impounding
Impounding refers to the act of confiscating, seizing, or taking possession of something by legal right or authority. This could be in relation to property, vehicles, assets, or even animals, often as a consequence of legal violations, unpaid debts, or to ensure public safety. The seized items are typically held in an impoundment until legal matters are resolved, debts are paid, or other specified conditions are met.
