A requirement in a search order that the respondent immediately hand over listed items (documents or articles) that are in their possession or control, so they can be kept safely by the applicant's solicitors or the supervising solicitor pending the court's directions. Disputed items go to the supervising solicitor until the court resolves the dispute.
In Plain English
A court order that forces someone to immediately hand over specific documents or items to a lawyer for safekeeping. This stops important evidence from being hidden or destroyed while the case is ongoing.
