TRACING


Meaning of TRACING in English

A legal proceeding taken under the law of equity where the plaintiff attempts to reclaim specific property, through the court, whether the property is still in the first acquirer's hands or it has passed onto others, and even if the property has been converted (related common law terms: conversion , trover and detinue ). This is a procedure frequently used by a trust beneficiary to recover misappropriated trust property.
