Sequestrate

When we say something or someone is “sequestrated,” it means they are being isolated, separated, or kept apart from others. It can refer to physical separation or even legal actions involving the seizure or control of assets. In legal terms, sequestration can occur when a court orders the temporary seizure of property or assets as part of a legal dispute or investigation. This is done to ensure that the assets are protected and not tampered with during the legal proceedings. It’s like putting those assets in a secure and isolated place until a resolution is reached.

On the other hand, sequestration can also refer to the act of isolating oneself or being isolated from others. This could be a voluntary choice or a result of circumstances. For example, someone might sequestrate themselves in a remote cabin to find peace and solitude away from the noise and distractions of everyday life.
