sequestrators
Court-appointed asset-takers
Sequestrators are people or entities that sequester—that is, isolate, remove, or take custody of something.
In legal contexts, a sequestrator is appointed by a court to take control of disputed property or assets until a case is resolved: The court appointed sequestrators to manage the company's finances during litigation.
The term also appears in environmental science, where carbon sequestrators are systems or organisms that capture and store atmospheric carbon dioxide.
