Answer to Question 1

wohoo thank youuu.

Answer to Question 2

A seizure of property occurs when there is some meaningful interference with an individual's possessory interest in that property. In determining whether or not a piece of property is seized, courts often refer to actual and constructive possessions. A piece of property is in a person's actual possession if he or she is physically holding or grasping the property. Constructive possession, by comparison, refers to possession of property without physical contact.
