seizable

Able to confiscate

Seizable describes something that can be seized—taken by force, legal authority, or sudden action.

Property may be seizable by creditors or law enforcement.

An opportunity is seizable if it can be grasped before it passes.

The word appears most often in legal and financial contexts: The court ruled the assets were seizable under the new statute.
